Why it's a bad idea to fix someone's computer for them

This strip from Dilbert expresses a profound truth. 

I am a huge fan of Ubuntu. I find it much easier to administer my system than I did when I had Windows. But I dare not install it on anyone else's computer because then I'd be offering an infinity of free support to them. And somehow, pretty soon, a problem would arise that I couldn't fix. And then I'd feel really, really bad.
