Forget Linux. Microsoft trains retailers on how to pitch Win 7 PCs vs. Macs | |
|

There’s been lots of coverage of Microsoft’s training materials aimed at Best Buy retail employees to help them sell Windows vs. Linux. Frankly, I was surprised Microsoft bothered to spend the money and time to create these docs, given Linux PCs constitute about one percent of the market. (Linux servers, of course, are a different story and one Microsoft is and needs to continue to focus on….) Ars Technica has unearthed a more telling set of Best Buy training docs from Microsoft: Ones aimed at teaching store employees how to pitch Windows 7 PCs vs. Macs. Given how much time, effort and money Microsoft is spending to fight Apple, these docs are a lot more relevant and interesting, in my opinion. | ||
