well it is Microsoft's big day (well it is tomorrow, they seem to have 
jumped the gun slightly) so it is natural they are talking about it. We 
too are celebrating the launch of Windows 7 with a special upgrade 
promotion. http://www.theopenlearningcentre.com/windows-7-upgrade-promotion
Next week with the launch of Karmic Koala is the time to talk about 
Linux, hopefully the BBC will join in the conversation.

also go to any conference on anything. Look at the percentage of Macs in 
the audience, look at the percentage of laptops that get put on the 
podium that are Macs. It is going up. Linux is too, but Macs are more 
spottable.
