The lead section of this article bluntly speaks about the
Windows Refund Day.
[Microsoft’s] “finger-pointing philosophy is exactly the
opposite of what IT departments demand. Consumers, though, expect
to be abused. And Microsoft did not disappoint.”
“No refund…Let’s face it, Windows Refund Day showed not the
strengths of Linux, FreeBSD, etc., but their weaknesses. The sparse
turnout and pseudo-guerilla theater at the so-called rallies
indicated that the open-source-OS market is immature at many
levels.”
