MS struggles to discredit Linux
By Thomas C Greene in Washington
Posted: 02/01/2002 at 07:09 GMT

What's cheaper than an OS you can buy outright once and install on every PC 
in your shop -- and upgrade cost-free for eternity to boot? Why, a slew of 
cheesy licenses for Microsoft Windows, 'Doze Division VP Brian Valentine 
claims in his latest cheerleading effort for his sales associates.

That's right; a putatively independent analysis by 
'we'll-conclude-anything' whores DH Brown is going to rip Linux a new one 
and find that Windows is actually cheaper. How Valentine knows this is 
anyone's guess. Perhaps he has a mole in the Brown organization as good as 
the one we have in his. Or perhaps MS simply paid for it. We don't know.
