On Monday, Microsoft said that it has updated both Kay “White Paper” and the accompanying blog and a chart to reflect the fact that both do not take into account the latest Apple hardware specifications. In the new document and use the scheme of several different models on the computer side.

Nevertheless, the main points I (and others) made last week against Microsoft bad math has not changed. Kay Report (Microsoft and his tax return) to continue to put the prosecution in the Mac column, that they are not in a position on the PC side when it comes to a software and services.

Assume that users can simply bring their old copies of office and Quicken - and that they do not need to be updated within five years of his life a new computer - takes a lot. This is especially funny, as Kay, and Microsoft added to the indictment on updating iLife on the Mac side.

With regard to services, then Microsoft has a fair point AppleCare more than the basic three-year Dell warranty. But then he threw in all the other services, such as in store training and optional MobileMe service again loses credibility.

I mean really, could be added (as some readers suggested) a five-year cost of antivirus software for the PC side, as well as one-time fee to remove crapware from your computer. Personally, I recommend antivirus software for both Mac and PC, although obviously Windows users have more need of it today.
