Ceck out there windows 7 page where they do a PC vs Mac comparison.

Very phwiting!

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/compare/pc-vs-mac.aspx

Is that even legal? To lambast the other companies products (well at least a company whose machines don;t run as much of there software as they would like...)

I guess it is or they wouldn't do it.

Anyway I have Windows 7 ultimate from yongsan and I must admit it is even better than Xp which I really liked.

Of course it's legal, as long as they don't lie. These sorts of comparisons often back fire, though.

I love W7 as well.

Why would it be illegal mate?
Goodness, it's a GOOD idea to criticize others products.

This is quite professional and a rather subtle response to the brutal campaign Apple launched against MAC a few years back.

That said, I think you'd have to have some sort of brain damage to go with a mac over a PC these days considering how much value you can get from them. Windows 7 is far more robust and dare I say, just as stable and secure as Apple's platform. I wish M$ would push this further rather than a digital pamphlet which is all they have now.

I would hardly call that "aggressive".
