Why do SW companies try to market themselves as Mother Teresa?
Microsoft does it with their ads that make you think your kids will be great astronauts if they use Windows...same with many others. Yesterday I saw one ad that showed a Quechua Native weaving, smiling. Excuse me WTF DOES SECURITY SOFTWARE HAVE TO DO WITH TRADITIONAL WEAVING???

IS THIS PERSON EVER GOING TO NEED ENTERPRISE CLASS SOFTWARE???
