Vista Versus Money
,----[ Quote ]
| Money, money, money; that's us.
|
| Microsoft should understand that -- just as we understand why Microsoft has
| started to push Vista with arguments ranging from the sincere to the screwy.
| (No, Steve Ballmer, most users won't ask their boss why they can't get Vista
| at work this year; they just want to keep getting a paycheck this year.)

Microsoft Denies It Profits From Vista-to-XP Downgrades
,----[ Quote ]
| "Customers have been forced to purchase the most expensive version of
| [Windows XP] in order to 'downgrade' from the Windows Vista operating
| system," the complaint read.
|
| That was the cause of some confusion last year, when Dell Inc. was accused of
| gouging customers by charging $150 to downgrade a new computer to XP. Dell,
| however, countered that although it did charge $20 to install XP on the
| machine, as well as to cover the cost of the additional media, the bulk --
| $120 of the $150 -- was the price of upgrading the PC from the standard Home
| Premium to the more expensive Business edition.
