See what the latest anti-Linux missive from Microsoft's is, such as the
following comment from Martin Taylor, general manager of platform strategy
(which is a codename for "chief Linux head-kicker" ) :
"We believe that Windows provides greater business value and lower
long-term costs for customers than competing platforms, including
Linux,"[1]
Now, you take such a sentence, and swap Windows and Linux around. You end
up with:
"We believe that Linux provides greater business value and lower
long-term costs for customers than competing platforms, including
Windows,"
Doesn't the statement have a stronger resonance of truth now?
Repeat it a few times to commit it to memory and use it as a mantra for
all Linux Windows comparisons with your clients and when you talk to the
press.
Remember, Microsoft spends US$7 billion a year on R & D, and most of
that is in their marketing department - the results of which they
thankfully open source. In fact, Microsoft pumps out hundreds of such
comments every month, all carefully crafted to sway opinion, many of which
can be 're-used'.
So, let's share in their largesse, no? ;-)
