What a load of crap.

Sorry but you have to have a equipment for an OS eval. The manufacturer,
M$, provided the equipment and set it properly for the tests to be
evaluated. They are trying to stack the deck for a positive eval, sure.
Making the hardware consistent and taking one major point of the a possible
problem should be done by any manufacturer in this case. I'm sure that
Apple did it as well ;->
