You've seen the Linux adverts, many tens of millions of dollars worth, they are mostly by Microsoft.

If Linux were all that M$ said it was (or wasn't) then why spend so much money and resources to convince others that M$ is superior - as if Linux were some big scam??? No, they be sweating bullets but are trying to adhere (vainly) to the "never let 'um see you sweat" mantra. Frankly it ain't working very well, especially seeing all the effort M$ puts into the anti-Linux campaign.
