What M$ doesn't tell us, ... (Score 2)

Linux lacks a Journaling file system - file system may not recover after unplanned downtime
"unplanned downtime" might be an issue for Windo$e, but ...

Windo$e has an Integrated file cache for faster access to commonly used files
What's new about that? Linux has got that for years.

It's easy to gain root access on Linux via poorly written applications
They don't say, that this is only true for suid-root applications.

26% less expensive to set up and integrate than UNIX
They don't say, that it's less expensive, because M$ admins can only double-click setup.exe, and if they're not happy with the result (after reboot), all they can do is reinstall from scratch (hopefully the right OS :)

Historically, in order to perform optimally, applications need to be recompiled when the OS is upgraded
What is historic about compiling? That's a FEATURE. In M$ OSs you have to buy an upgrade of your software.

Windo$e has Support for 24K devices - 15K with Logo
M$ doesn't write drivers, they just put their Logo on the hardware. And if your machine crashes, M$ will blame it on your broken hardware.

Windows has Support through partners and OEMs
They don't say, that the partners and OEMs can't do anything without sources.

M$ complains that: Most configuration settings require editing of text-based files
What's wrong about that? Aren't M$ server admins able to do that, or it notepad unable to open large text files?

M$ says: Provides source code to allow developers to deviate from standard distribution
They don't tell us that this is clearly a feature, not a bug.

just my $.2
