Unfortunately the Register tends to shoot too much from the hip, as shown by their use of the phrase "We haven't as yet seen the full study..."

They're probably right and the study is probably flawed and biased, but we need to see the whole thing before we know where the bias is.  But I'm sure Microsoft funds a lot of these studies.  (Remember the "NT is faster than Linux" fiction a while back?)  I'm sure most of them come up with the "wrong" answer and are never made public.  It's interesting how small of an advantage Microsoft is claiming here.
