Shiny! But they don't tell their partners what do with people that
have tried both and would only use windows if it was significantly
better (which it isn't).

It has been up on the web for quite a while. There is a Digg post 
linking to it from over 300 days ago.


I was curious as to whether it was an officially released website or 
not. The domain is owned by a contractor to MS and not MS itself. I also 
thought anything like this would be done in house and not contracted out.
