Call for Support for Windows7sins Campaign

Recently FSF (Free software Foundation has launched) Windows7sins campaign. http://windows7sins.org/ . The moto of the campaign to give a awareness to the user on "bad points" of Windows Operating System Or you can say what is wrong with Microsoft and Windows. They have also composed a letter too ( http://windows7sins.org/letter/ ) regarding this awareness campaign.
I fully support this. I am supporting this campaign by following ways

* I am sending this letter to companies in India
* I am Tweeting all FOSS related tweets with #windows7sins
* I have put a support link to my HomePage
* I am discussing it with my friend.
* I am going to put windows7sins poster in next few workshop.
