Honestly, any test between a microsoft product and a competitor run on microsoft's operating system has to be viewed with a grain of salt. What's interesting here is the degree of trust given to a vendor that has tried to rig/break even hardware to lock out competition: http://antitrust.slated.org/www.iowaconsumercase.org/011607/3000/PX03020.pdf http://antitrust.slated.org/www.iowaconsumercase.org/011607/...
And yes, bg still has a lot of swing at microsoft: http://www.businessinsider.com/bill-gates-is-back-at-microsoft-big-time-2014-10 http://www.businessinsider.com/bill-gates-is-back-at-microso...
Worse below, there are people simultaneously believing in a vendor that has long track record establishing their "rig the game" overarching corporate strategy and dissing the blog author for doubting the vendor's claims, even to the extent of accusing the author, who checked only two HTML5 benchmarks, of going on a witch hunt to find benchmarks that disadvantaged the vendor.

Maybe I'm being too naive, but this sounds more like he is concerned about giving away the work rather than locking people in. I would prefer if these kind of initiative are open source but in my opinion each company have the right to release as they please the technology they develop. In my mind, this is the same case that Apple with the Thunderbolt, and I think is fair that if Apple decide to keep its technology as private they should be able to do so.
