Tell him that there indeed is a catch and explain the restrictions as outlined in the GPL (or any other applicable license). It's just that the catch doesn't apply to him since he is not a developer.
Go away. Just because nobody inside your flat uses it doesn't mean the rest of the world agrees. Personally I love it, especially Scale (aka Exposé), which is the best thing since sliced bread. I also regularly tab different windows (like a text editor and a shell) and also Expo is starting to grow on me. I now honestly have a hard time on computers without it.
This is indeed a wonderful feature of KDE, just yesterday I discovered someone created a rio600:/ kioslave which allowes me to easily drag and drop music to my player through konqueror. The best thing about this package is that it works on top of a command line program rioutil, but it's so transparent you won't even notice. I love it.
It also allows me to edit text files directly on a remote ftp server, without having to go through the usual and annoying download-edit-upload-test-process. Just save and (in my case, for web development) refresh the page in your browser.

Yeah, but not when they need that car the next morning to get to work. They usualy just get a piece of junk to toy with.
