Windows looks good on the outside, but try a long term relationship with it, and you're left feeling empty. Linux on the other hand is rich, complex, and you'll never stop learning about it. It's plain and functional on the inside, but you can still dress it up -- and at least for you, make it look better than windows ever could.
The comparison fits for closed vs open source software. For the long term, you need communication, the ability to understand, and you need to keep learning.
It should boost the value of on-line advertising if the Advertising Agencies take this to heart. Should make it easier to turn a profit out of your site just using ads...the study is probably a good thing.
