Hi folks,

Just seen this on The Register:

It appears that Microsoft is sending out fud to stores in the US saying that most people want Windows.

It's kind of interesting reading, and I guess it would prepare us for what might come over here to the likes of PC World etc in the future.

And at the same time, they're giving away (er, selling!) patents to protect the Linux (and other) worlds...

Bonkers!
