Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y "Marking what could have been a summer-long hiatus in its 'Get the Facts' campaign, Microsoft is re-igniting the flames on the argument over whether enterprises spend less to manage Windows systems than Linux systems. This morning, the company touted a study it commissioned from independent analyst Mercer Management Consulting, which made the case that companies that implement migration programs away from UNIX systems based on the need to adopt new applications - what Mercer calls 'transformational migrations' - now tend to choose Windows over Linux." I just bought some salt, now I can put it to good use.

They don't say no. If it turns out to be something they can't fix (which is rare) you get a refund. If it turns out to be a legitimate bug, you get a refund. Otherwise they work it until they can fix it.
