@glotz: who even mentioned other systems? we would only be spreading real facts about Linux/Ubuntu

For those that do not know, "Get the Facts" is an ad campaign from M$ to try to push business away from using Linux Servers and desktops by saying the TCO (total cost of ownership) is greater with Linux based on the idea of service costs, training costs, and productivity lose.
I think a "Get the REAL Facts" campaign would be better and take the direct quotes from the "Get the Facts" campaign and dispute them using real time statistics from Ubuntu. Show case samples of what the TCO of Linux really is.
