Okay so here's where it starts getting bad.
No iPod support? Really? And the Zune doesn't work on the Mac either although there has been some progress from the Linux community. And I've never had any problems pulling pictures from cameras.
I've yet to see a printer that doesn't have a driver. You might have to download it from the products website though (gasp!).
Yeah yeah. Software. Although WINE has been vastly improving lately (we even got around that stupid Secu-ROM).
There are free alternatives to all of the Windows Live "essentials".
WOW. Of all the games to mention, they mention World of Warcraft. I wrote a tutorial on how to get WoW running on Linux not to long ago. Its probably the easiest game to set up with in WINE.
Authorized support? Well you have Red Hat and Canonical, oh I guess you can count Novell...
Video chat with Pidgin? Or Skype?
I don't have time to refute the rest, but I'll post the screenies.

- Learn to read-- it doesn't say no iPod support, it says limited (or few),
- As far as I know, WoW does not work natively on Linux. You have to go do funyn stuff and read a tutorial like you wrote in order to get it to work.
- They're probably talking about things like this were you have people at places like Best Buy that must complete some sort of training.
- Again, learn to read. The word you're missing here is "all."
All in all, I'm not sure why you think this is so rediculous. If you're making something to teach how to sell something to people, of course they are going to do everything in their power to make it sound more awesome than the other thing.

You do realise that I didn't write any of that? I just copied and pasted from the source to save you the click (I know what some are like on these forums). You might want to go to the original link and post that to the original author and see what his response is.
Are you a Microsoft employee by any chance? You sound kinda defensive over something that I only posted for a laugh
