Microsoft FUD declared misleading by UK ASA

I was happy to see that the horrible MSFT campaign that compared the cost of running Windows on a dual 900MHz Xeon vs the cost of Linux running on a z900 IBM mainframe was declared misleading by the UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA). The fact that Microsoft needs to run ads like these speaks volumes in my opinion. My favorite part of the ad:
The ASA said the asterisk linked to a footnote that said: “Results may vary outside the United States”.
Evidentially, computers somehow operate differently outside the US it would seem ;)
