Undoubtedly, it smacks of very strong medicine for what must be a huge
thorn in their side - the great marketing machine has yet again clunked
into action to spread FUD.

Oh, and if there have been user complaints about the Linux desktop, just
wait until they get Windows 8!​ We recently had a migration to this in the
office by our desktop support department - and a significant number of
people had to be *forced* to accept the so called 'upgrade' and it
generally caused chaos and confusion, not to mention loss of productivity.
Fortunately I work for a team/department which is immune to such games, we
can use whatever we deem fit for purpose as long as we self support.
