In this (my blog) becomes ‘fact‘ conclusion – LInux is better. computer magazines/it media are still chicken about saying so but then we all know advertisers pay for ‘editorial’ in those things. This is the reason why Bananas refuses to buy / subscribe to it publications be they the monthly/weekly type.
Mind you having a chair thrown at you by Steve Balmer shows the media world is a bit lame*. Perhaps this explains why blogs are more independant.
Microsoft throw a huge amount of shit back at there partners in the article, its scary, one games company ‘partner’ died printer firms got accused of treason (blows the Microsoft tco argument), and so forth
Vista is awful, still requires hundreds of patches and sucks but its nice to know that the official view too, Lest us not forget that there was no mention of drm – see how that did not get a mention by the msm.
Those performance figures are damming.
The unbiased msm editor is missed in the world of it and games magazines. Perhaps that is why these articles make them the exception rather than the rule which denegrates them to being mere propaganda machines for the like of Microsoft. Linux magazines don’t have that problem but then they know there market.
Where the general it magazine becomes funny is when the ‘editor’ or i listen and i write down what you want me say’ goes rogue and pisses of there publisher (no microsoft advertising) and talks down to there readership.

go Vista VISTA - um err sucks
* This happened last year when a journalist decided he knew better than both his paymaster and being an expert Microsoft ‘genius’ [but never employed by them] told them everything he had spent the last couple of years hyping vista in the cheerleader out fit was excrement. You gotta love that independence ? yes ?.
If you read those years- you just have be been called an retard.
