Stop recommending any Thrid Party stuff

130 points posted to Advertising and Marketing by hemantm 02/22/07

Let the customer decide what is good for him/her or their business. Dell should stop forcing Microsoft to all the customers. Promotional banners like "Dell recommends Windows Vistaâ„¢ Business" clearly indicates lack of customer orientation from Dell. Microsoft is NOT Dell, and Dell should only promote Dell stuff. Dell recommending Microsoft everywhere in advertisements and Dell websites and other promotional places clearly indicates of secret deals between Dell and Microsoft. This only shows the "Customer is *ILLITERATE* and will buy any *JUNK*" attitude of DELL.

It is a good point: How do you Mr. Dell expect the OpenSource community to buy a Dell-Linux-Notebook if youl promote Microsoft everywhere?!
