I think marketing, advertising, and hyperbole are irrelevant to a usenet
group. A bunch of employees
crowing about the fact that the company that pays their salary is better
than the company that doesn't
it not something I have to go to the internet to read. I've no doubt the
people that are paid to do marketing
for Coca Cola can quote equally valid statistics about those "Pepsi
Users". Me? I just walk up to the machine,
put in my quarters and take whatever comes out. It's all brown fizzy
water to me.
