Not everone wants to pay Microsoft *HUGE* fees to use their
product recognition emblems.

I don't have much money to spend, so before I buy any hardware,
you can bet I know *everything* good & bad about it before
my cash ends up in the register. Usually, this takes at least
a month of research and comparison shopping.

Unfortunately not everyone seems to be this diligent, and of
course, probably shouldn't have to be.

I haven't gotten around to seeing if it is true or not though.
