It seems Microsoft had a hard time marketing Windows Vista upon launching. Otherwise they wouldn’t creating the following website: mojaveexperiment.com. Basically, a group of people that already had a bad opinion about Vista without trying it out for themselves were shown some of the features of the new Windows Mojave. After being amazed they were told that Mojave was in fact Vista. Most of them rated the Mojave version higher than Vista.

Of course, things would have been different if they were left a couple of days/weeks to really explore the “true power” of Vista with all those “fast” response times.

The problem with this type of surveys is that the people are selected in a manner that will ultimately will only prove the intended point of view.

Let’s have a look over another example: a video on  YouTube entitled Why people believe Americans are Stupid. What are the odds of a random person walking down the street not knowing how many sides does a triangle have? Of course, you won’t see all the positive responses in the final video, just the extreme ones.
