People can sway statistics and tests to their own light pretty easily.=20
We dismiss anything that says Microsoft is faster and so why wouldn't a
Microsoft junkie dismiss anything that says Linux is faster?

I always say I am willing to concede they are equal.  Why?  Because
Linux wins on so many other plains.  I will even concede that costs are
equal.  Because you see when it comes down to the list of freedoms (I
know some hate that word), but Microsoft (to quote MC Hammer) "Can't
touch this!".

So let the biggots argue and concede to them that all things are equal
in price, speed etc and you still have a HUGE competitive advantage over
a proprietary product.
