"Still, I think its important to listen to people like Walt Mossberg
because sometimes its necessary for us geeky types to get in the shoes
of the end user. When Walt has problems getting his digital camera
recognized, or syncing up with his iPod, or playing Web-based video
clips, you can be assured that your average end user probably will
too. Can the community fix these problems? Absolutely. But unlike the
rabid Team OS/2 guys of old, let's not take out our frustrations on
the poor mainstream press when what we really should be doing is
getting back to the drawing board and making things work."
Complain about Microsoft and Digg every second of the day, or actually
work on making it better? Hmmm what to do, what to do...
