Microsoft Ratchets Up Virtualization Trash Talk
,----[ Quote ]
| The cards also listed the URL for a new Microsoft Web site called
| www.vmwarecostswaytoomuch.com, which reflects Microsoft's strategy of using
| price to grab market share from its well-entrenched virtualization market
| foe. The garishly colored Web site, which was registered on Aug. 27, is being
| hosted for Microsoft by Seattle-based advertising agency Wexley School For
| Girls.

| "I also recall Microsoft doing something similar to Novell back in the day,
| and Novell coming back with something like stopthefud.com," said Ward. "In
| the end, everybody must look at what is the best solution for their
| particular situation and make an informed choice on a hypervisor based on
| actual research, not FUD [fear, uncertainty, and doubt]."

Microsoft Lobbying In Singapore
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft business partners were giving template letters and asked to fill
| them in. The letters are word for word the same. It makes for incredible
| reading. In fact, the keen-eyed reader will notice that some of the letters
| have the template variables still present (look for [ADD NAME, TITLE, ASSOC.]
| e.g Alphasoft, CHASS, etc).

| And the most hilarious letter of support comes from a Singaporean secondary
| girl's school, Crescent Girl's School. That's right folks, that's how
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| desperate they were to get their "Approve" vote, they actually got a school
| to submit a letter of support...
