I see that you reference The Register on occasions. The Register is
still /relatively/ fine. They take some Microsoft money for putting that
search bar and they slagged off the FSF at least once in the past. Still, it's
decent most of the time. I have a friend who knows the editors there and he
ensures they don't get misled by Microsoft's lobbying arms, such as ACT (and
trust me, they tried).
What happened to the guts?
