Windows Microsoft is hard at work trying to battle the public and businesses' perception about Windows Vista. They already published a whitepaper named "Five Misunderstood Features in Windows Vista", detailing some of what they believe are misunderstandings. Now, they also published a document wit five reasons to deploy Windows Vista - and why you shouldn't wait for Windows 7.

Did you have a bad day or something?
Actually, I'm an IT professionnal and I've seen quite a few networks already, but I don't mind your assumptions. A lot of people actually want to download porn and don't like to download virii as well.
Anyway, I politely disagree with you. for a start, MS Office and Photoshop reportedly run very well under Wine and Crossover.
I see you have had a bad experience with Fedora and Ubuntu, but you didn't try Mandriva. This one has a very good hardware support, the best IMO. Maybe the problem is that you don't know linux very well but you can use Windows fluently.
In most businesses I've seen they use Windows to stay compatible with customers and suppliers. It's the monopoly sustaining itself. There is nothing that seems able to break it. Price and quality is not enough. You've got to convince the whole chain to migrate all together, including customers and suppliers.
