Fun as it might be to see a couple of pointed questions being thrown at them, 
spending any time whatsoever in front of a bunch of Microserfs, while they 
slag off Linux and promote their own overpriced crud to an audience who know 
no better than to enthusisatically lap it all up, is not my idea of fun.

Good luck though - let us know how it goes.
