Calling all good Microsoft citizens!
Now is the time to step out and show our loyalty and faithfulness to Windows. Here are some good arguments that we can use against this article:

1. Independent, third party researchers are not to be trusted. I studied the results of 20 independent Linux-related studies alongside 20 Linux-related studies sponsored by Microsoft. Guess what? All of the independent studies came out more in favor of Linux and less in favor of Windows than the Microsoft studies did. I'd always guessed that independent researchers were biased, but now we know for sure.

2. The media is biased in favor of Linux. The countless pro-MS stories that the media publishes are just a weak attempt to appear unbiased. But the very fact that they would publish a pro-Linux story proves that they are biased. What could they be trying to accomplish? If they were really neutral, why would they try to advance the cause of Linux by publishing a positive news story about it?

3. Microsoft is always better. I guess this eliminates the need for the last two points. Just go to the Microsoft website and you'll discover in full why Microsoft is always the right choice. Hey, even making a Google search for "linux" will call up a noble ad leading to a comparison website (neutral, of course) that shows you why Windows is better. What more can I say?
