I would have been much more impressed with Microsoft’s Mojave Experiment if they’d done a double-blind test wherein the OS represented as “Mojave” was really a similarly badge-stripped, tricked-out version of, say, Ubuntu with KDE 4, or perhaps Linux Mint— _then_ compared Vista’s numbers to the others.

Or if they’d asked the users to try to print to an all-in-one device that hadn’t had the drivers updated yet.

Microsoft’s proposal, that Vista’s shortcomings are due to marketing issues, distracts the company from its real chores of *fixing* the problems before the Windows 7 ship date.
