You should see other articles from Bradon Watts. I sent him an E-mail the
other day because his life seems to revolve around the Macs and how pretty
and cute they are. In general, this site is a rather poor one. It seems to
be associated with that network where one editor-in-chief wrote the article
"why Microsoft should buy Linux". He got _a lot_ of unwanted attention for
his stupidity.
Aaron Seigo (of KDE) said something intersting when Thom from OSNews wrote
about GNOME and KDE going nowhere. He said, just because someone has a Web
site doesn't mean he or she knows better. And boy, was he right! Enderle the
Microsoft shill gets a spot in quite a few publications, doesn't he? Despite
being banned by a few, as a matter of policy and principal. Next up: John C.
Dvorak, who openly admit he is trolling.
