And that is my Point! MS is only advertizing themselves as the alternative for people on a tight budget. Let's crow to the heavens and rejoice! Thou tomb stone shall read: None were cheaper than him!
Not sure why everybody keeps bringing up irrelevant examples about cars when the talk about computers; is that a microsoft thing? Thank you, Mark Snyder -----Original Message----- > So, assuming this ad is successful, the only reason to buy a Windows > computer is because you're on budget. I don't know whether you're being deliberately obtuse or not. This is logically indefensible. Suppose my car won't start, and then I find that my neighbor's car won't start either, because his battery is dead. Does that mean that my battery also must be dead, and that the fact that I have no gas is not relevant? Well, guess what? It turns out that there's more than one possible reason why a car won't start, and there's more than one possible reason to buy a Windows machine. The ad neither implies nor demonstrates that this is the *only* reason; it demonstrates (proves, really) *one* reason. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
