Thank you for your very long but good post! I'd say it's important to show people the different mindsets. If I'm forced to use windows (at work), I'm always again astonished how difficult it is to get the tools to just do your work, how much pain it is to keep everything updated etc. GNU/Linux, in contrast, feels much more "out of one hand", as all those thousands of packages can be installed and deinstalled with just one command. There's no need to use crippled demo / student versions or shareware. The tools are all inclusive. Maybe you can also show that even people who are not programmers can help A LOT by translating, sending bug reports, designing themes etc.
