Permalink Microsoft Tries To Feed Up More FUD, Again




What would you do if you were forced to pull a document from your public website because it was filled with factual errors and misstatements? What would you do with survey results that were shown to be biased and held to be statistically invalid by one of the leading survey researchers in the world? Well it seems that if you are a Microsoft employee by the name of Roger Murff (Senior Product Manger, Microsoft) , you go ahead and quote these documents as if they are fact, hoping that your potential customers do not realize how faulty the facts being presented are, and use FUD to sell instead of focusing on the benefits of your product. I am still reading this document, but I encourage anyone presented with this document consider the source and read "Lies, Damn Lies, and Radica...oops I Mean Statistics" and "On Forbes, Foolishness and FUD". If anybody wants the subject Microsoft presentation being shown around the world, please let me know,
