I agree about there not being anything wrong with the website. Its simple and if you need to get any particular piece of information you click the link at the top.
The common functions are easy to get to; If I want to download the product I click the link and im then shown the types I want to download.
If I go to the website im not likely to want more information than reading one section unless I want to go indepth

Diversifying your supply is universally considered to be an important aspect of risk management.
Yet, The US Department of Justice has "found" that Microsoft Windows is run by more than 95% of personal computers. Even taking Apple's Mac OS into account, Microsoft Windows is still present on more than 80% of computers, and this is likely also true in most other countries, not just in the US. Thus governments, companies and home users all over the world ultimately depend on a single provider: Microsoft.
The question is not whether Microsoft has evil intents, or whether it may go out of business, but whether its plans match yours. A company may want to deploy thin clients to simplify administration and save money on per-client Windows licenses. But is Microsoft going to make it viable and undercut its Windows market? Where is the alternative if Microsoft implements its software subscription model? If Microsoft is not interested in catering to your market, then you have no other provider to turn to.[/quote]
Its important that we have several choices and healthy competition. We dont want software companies not improving their products because they have no reason to do so.
