This reminded me of one of my favorite little quips by David Thorne from 27bslash6 where someone was questioning the time/expense for him to design something and the client's argument was something like:
"My nephew has Photoshop and he could create something faster/for less"
and David's retort was something like:
"I assume your nephew has Microsoft Word as well, so I assume he could also write a novel?"
