What upsets me is that last night Slashdot posted an item to say that PC World
admitted the mistake (and supposedly resolved it). Slashdot links to a Reg
article from the 14th (being well behind as usual). The facts suggest that,
judging by the most recent event, PC World chiefs do the talking while the
scum at the bottom carries on with the abuse.
This is no good publicity for PC World. They were never competent. Think of
them as the MacDonalds of gadgets. *smile*
