One of life's little lessons was visited on me (yet again) when I decided to boot europa, my desktop machine, into Ubuntu 7.10 Alpha 5. I fired up Firefox and went out looking at some sites to check various installed features. As I went rambling about the web I came across OSNews and checked out an article on the release of Fedora 8 Test 2.

Right there in the middle of the article was the Microsoft ad you see below. Now, I normally block ads on my other Firefox installs, but this time I was running with 'naked' Firefox, and because nothing was blocked I got a surprising eyeful. A big fat anti-Linux Microsoft ad placed right in the middle of an article about Fedora 8. Wow. Incredible placement.

You have to market, and it has to be done professionally.
