My most expensive software purchase in the last fifteen years was about $45 for some DJ software a few years ago.
For graphics and video I use some of the same software Dreamworks uses, price $0. For general desktop use, the same OS as the NSA, price $0. In some cases it may be a little less convenient, though. Of course, in some cases it's far more convenient - try emailing the lead developer of MS Office and getting a fix coded within 24 hours.
I was recently provided a Mac full of software, so I'll get get to see what it's like being confined to the walled garden.
