Microsoft Indoctrinating Best Buy Employees With Anti-Linux Propaganda
How is Microsoft trying to ensure wide acceptance of their new OS? By lying to the very people that consumers trust to help them pick the right PC (the fact that this trust is entirely misplaced is another story).
Quite simply, MS knows that if they go through another Vista-like release, it’s game over. Apple and Google (with the upcoming Chrome OS) are in a good position to take even more marketshare if they stumble with Windows 7.
It’s really a shame that Microsoft feels the need to resort to lies here. They actually did a pretty good job with Windows 7, and it would stand on its own without spreading a bunch of FUD to the Blue Shirt “experts.”
