Considering MSFT is talking about selling their website, and that we can count the number of farmers out buying NT server on one hand, I think not.

Basically, those commercials are a gimmick. They are not targeted at farmers per se, they are using a commonly held misconception that farmers are dumb, and if a dumb farmer can use Win98, then everyone else will believe Windows 98 won't be difficult to use. Why else would they use a skinny kid with glasses talking about Bessy?

Now, if we can cut the pure, unadulterated hype and get back to our normally scheduled programming.......
