We don't openly support M$ products, and the *only* reason we offer them
at all is because we are asked for them on occasion by folks who 
want dual boot systems.  We don't even advertise the fact that we 
install M$ products.  Matter of fact, we charge cost for OEM software
from M$.  We were conceived as a Linux company and will remain a Linux 
company.  If Linux should evaporate then we'll find another line of work, 
we *won't* start selling M$ systems to pay the bills.

I find it mildly amusing to ponder the reaction of M$ corporate types who 
are aware of Linux and stumble across "Linux Hardware Solutions" on the 
list of M$ OEM partners.  They probably don't have a clue, but it is
fun to think of them swallowing their gum over it.  :-)
