Story: Microsoft rubbishes school open source report
Posted by: Marc Dresdon (Saturday 14 May 2005, 5:36 PM)
I can't believe this, Microsoft are well known for producing extremely unscientific reports using every trick in the book to try and lean the results in their favour (including using ridiculously small sample sizes).
And now they take an independant report and 'rubbish' it stating for one that the sample size is too small. Why is it ok to have a small sample size in a Microsoft funded report but not in an independant report?
It is obvious Microsoft will continually lie through their teeth if helps maintain their market share!
