There's a huge flaw in that statement, in regard to this discussion.
Virtually all people who prefer Linux over Windows know both products.
Virtually all people who prefer Windows over Linux only know how to
spell Linux. Ask anyone who uses Linux what their experiences are with
Windows. Do the same for your average Windows geek. I do mean windows
geek, not windows user. I've never met anyone who pushes Microsoft
technology who also has any experience with Linux.
> Coke Example: Even Coke says Coke does not taste as good as Pepsi
This whole argument makes no sense to me either. I don't particularily
care for Coke or Pepsi. The once in a blue moon I find myself at
McDonalds I'll get a coke because their ice tea is usually weeks old.
If my only choices were Coke or Pepsi, I'd choose Coke because of the taste.
Drew, your problem is you believe so much in marketing that you think
it's the answer to everything. It's not. Not all people fall for the
lies. That's all marketing is. Twists of the truth, have truths and
bald face lies.
