Most people will read: "Linux is not ready, better use Windows" (never mind that Szulik didn't even mention Apple) and MS will make certain it's understood that way. I stay with what I said: The way it was put, it was not a smart comment, either way you look at it - even though I generally agree with the "no false expectations" point of view. But I still would not recommend Windows instead, for the reasons mentioned previously.
