Somewhat controversial anti-Linux training for MS and Best Buy
sellers:

http://www.techspot.com/news/36163-microsoft-indoctrinating-best-buy-employees.html

Microsoft wants to train Best Buy employees to confuse the hell out of them. Once they take
the training, they will quit.

Seems like they are awfully concerned about an OS some people here say
doesn't do anything.

Most people dismiss Linux as just a geeks toy. Perfect for you.

Microsoft: The tech world's Republican Party. All they have left are
lies and attempting to indoctrinate people with these lies. Three
glaring examples of those who are indoctrinated in this group: Saucy,
The Nymshifter and Frank.

You only wish you could get a job at Best Buy but you had to leave the
USA. Too bad.

Sounds like a trip to Best Buy this week-end.
I hope I get Bill Yanaire as a sales stooge.

Sorry. That kind of job sounds like it's way over your head. Maybe if
you studied very hard, you could work the mop and bucket at Taco-Bell.

Linux updates are hard? ... LOL

For someone like yourself they are.
Personalization...Linux wins hands down there.

You wouldn't know.
Peace of Mind?...MS has the gall to claim that!!
Maybe they meant after you purchased an AV, anti-malware,anti-spyware,and
spending 10% of your system to run these apps.

Windows...the OS of choice if you like running anti-malware apps for
entertainment.

You're too stupid to configure Windows. Stick with DOS 6.22
Linux...when you just wanna use the damn computer

But you would be struggling. Get some help right away.
 
Linux Is Great, Microsoft Sucks, If My Dad Wasn't Banning Me From Using It,
I Would Be Using It Right Now, Rather Than Paying Microsoft $219.99 4 An
Upgrade Copy Of Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Edition, Which Is Twice The
Price That They Want 4 It In The U.K.
 
The tech world's Republican Party? 'Guess so, and Linux is the for the
granola crunching, broken down old hippy, rainbow coalition ivory towered
university painfully politically correct crowd. But then that's the 1990's
Alias. This is 2009. Linux is forgotten, dropped, cast aside, because now
that crowd buys Apple laptops and spends their time tuning into the wireless
networks at Bridgehead and Starbucks. Linux is never going to burst through
at the "consumer" level. It couldn't even hold its own on Netbooks against
an old version of Windows.

So.

Hello.

Wake-up Alias.

This is not the year Linux takes the desktop. Not this year, not the next,
not the one after that, nor the one after that one - never. The 90s are
over, Linux didn't make it. Move on.

And Saucy chimes in and proves my point as well. All we need now if for
Frank to post his lying drivel.

Hey ****wit - Linux sucks. Microsoft is what people use. You don't
know how to use it. Just FYI. You are suppose to be an adult. 35+
years old and your ****ING Dad has banned you from using the computer?

HA HA HA HA - What an idiot. Why not go to the airport and hang around
the mens room? I hear Gay Republican Senators frequent there and are
looking for a right wing wacko retard like yourself. Just FYI.

Did I say Just FYI?

Maybe you should call the government and explain to them why Windows
should be recalled! HA HA HA HA. Please record the conversation and
post it so we can all have a good laugh! Just FYI.

Did I say Just FYI?

Then switch to Ubuntu and dump Windows and stop fighting with your computer.

But one thing disturbed me:
Amongst various parameters by which MS graded an Operating System, was
inclusion iof games e.g. World of Wizard, or some other junk, iPOD's/camera
compatibility, VIDEO CHAT (!!!), and othe rutter nonsense for a
business/professional.

Are we becoming a nation of idiots?
Do you realize how idiotic it looks to people whose IQ is above even a
modest 100?

Are they seriously grading Windows vs. Linux based on inclusion of World of
Crafts, Wizard or whatever imbecile marketing/sales moron decided people
need?

Do you kno wwhat I do after each new Windows installation? I get myself
Full COntrol permission and desotry all Games & Bloatware folders. I seek
and destroy trash.
TRASH TRASH TRASH

And this is used to judge an Operating System?

Shame on you sales cretin.

I lved Windows, but when I saw that Microsoft's anti-Linux rant, I have to
admit - the IQ level in Redmond is dropping.

An interesting point. I used to work with some of their people. The
amount of brainwashing was astounding. It drove from the top down,
from VP's to minions. They simply traveled on a different wavelength,
where everything MS was good, and everything non-MS was bad. Their
plan to take over the software world was not a plan in their minds, it
was simply the proper evolution of society (yea, society, not just
software).

As you noted, much like the Republicans brainwashing of their masses
into thinking that the neo-con master's have the minions best
interests in mind (when in fact the exact opposite is true). To give
fair time to the opposition: the Democrats inability to coordinate
anything is not necessarily a better way to run a party. More honest,
but as Will Rodgers once said "I'm not part of an organized political
party - I'm a Democrat".

Maybe You Can Take A Class To Get Your IQ Up To 43.

Just FYI


Then Recall Windows By The USA Government. Just FYI.

Describes Linux pretty well, doesn't it? The disorganized Democratic
Party won WWII, started Social Security, Medicare, Civil Rights and much
more so being disorganized might just be the way to do it ;-) I do think
Obama, if they don't kill him, will get a lot done that should have been
done decades ago.
