Good point. That guy from the New York Times, David Pogue, is a douche. Paul Thurrott writes some good stuff, however.

No, you are right there are some good ones out there, but for every good one there is a plethora of bad ones. I was interviewed for some articles in CIO magazine about how I admin my Macs and integrate them into a PC environment. The author was nice, but she called boot camp an emulator....

I used to love reading Maximum PC (back when it was called boot magazine) but after like their third year of print they started writing crap and they give out too many kick ass awards. I think that no body stands by a set of standards these days. I mean they gave Windows XP a perfect 10, and they never hand out 10s, not to mention no OS on release deserves a 10 they are filled with bugs.

Oh well, one of these days I will have to finish building my website/blog so I can at least attempt to give out proper information.
