Reality check...
Why don't you back to being a technology comapany instead of "empowering business to exceed their expectations" and other absolutely mindless, meaningless retarded market droid dribble?

Because EVERYONE out there, to some extent, does it.

Business wants to know what they're gonna get out of their investment. They want to know how their business will be "empowered" and why they should scrap the OS they bought just a few years ago and go with a new one.

This is ESPECIALLY true in a climate where money's tight and business would rather not spend what duckets they've got available unless there's a really compelling reason to do so.

That's what MARKETING is all about.

As far as belief is concerned. YOU personally may not believe anything coming out of Redmond. And that's ok. It's still a free country. However, most of us who aren't in the rabid Linux fanatic club will at least wait and see what the new technologies and the new OS will have to offer before passing judgement.
