As I said, this isn't misleading info at all. Misleading info would be that they state it works on Windows 95, when it is not.
It is misleading, because the article states that the feature only works with Windows 2000 and above. Which is wrong. It DOES with Windows 98SE. In turn meaning it is misleading, as to say that it is for only 2000 and above when it's certainly not.
It's like saying that MSN Messenger 7.0 is Windows XP only, when it works on 98SE/ME/2000.
As I said, and as I'm going to repeat, this isn't misleading info...

MS states only the OS's which a program is
tested on and passed the tests. It might work for you, but it might not work for another as you might need special additional libraries to be installed, etc (like Unicode Layer).
All the rest are unsupported and thus not mentionned.
Again, there is nothing "misleading" or "wrong" about it. MS only states OS's on which a program fully works without additional mombo-jumbo to be installed or hacks and tricks etc...
