it's a habit of mine everytime I receive free microsoft junk cds in the

That I can easily believe. Ok, certain tasks get done faster than they
traditionally would have, but overall I don't think things are any
quicker when you add up network downtime, system crashes, printing out
documents before they can be reviewed, ordering more hardware to cope
with the latest bloated apps etc. etc.

I'd love to hear anything that you come across about that study...
