Why Microsoft will dump their anti-Linux rhetoric
itwire.com — Microsoft promise to reveal the “facts” on Windows vs Linux solutions. They cite company after company that abandoned Linux because it was slow and unreliable and generally hopeless, but opted for Microsoft servers and found unsurpassed profits and effiency. The headlines on this site tell a totally different story than the case studies themselves.

I think that says it all... It's no different to any of the other Get the Facts campaigns - completly built on deceit and misinformation... Like that one that compared the cost of Windows and Linux servers, but they included the hardware in the price. The Linux one was Red Hat running on a IBM blade server or something, and the Windows one running on a regular server.
