A better idea would be to donate the money you *would* have spent to a
good organization like the Ubuntu Foundation, the Free Software
Foundation, Software in the Public Interest, or Software Freedom
International (the parent organization of Software Freedom Day).

A donation of $120 to FSF will even make you a card carrying associate
member. :)
