Does it matter what domain name the server uses? I thought the article
raised some interesting points, many of which are ones I agree with and
planned to comment on in my own reviews. Certainly, the concerns the review
raises cannot simply be dismissed by a snide comment about where the server
might be based and the homes of the people who live there.

I agree entirely, the article makes some very valid points. I guess if MS
read it they will just try and spin their way out instead of taking note
of it.

no, just trying to inject some humor into the latest bit of your
negativity. you spend your day finding negative articles and posts,
then come here to share them. why is that? clearly no one wants to
see what you post, so why bother?

Uh. I enjoyed reading the review that the original post linked to. Your "no
one" clearly doesn't include me.

Ok, I read it. Here's a gem, right in the first paragraph:

Opinion. It sucks. It's a complete mess; a dog's breakfast.
It's bug-riddled; it contains legacy features that hark back
to Windows 3.1, and, worst of all, it can't be trusted with
your valuable data. The user interface only looks slick;
underneath it's a slapped-together hotchpotch of brain-dead,
dysfunctional and downright buggy features. Windows Vista
was surely designed and built by the same well-meaning
but thoroughly misguided committee of morons who were
responsible for the three-legged Bactrian camel named
Humphrey.

Sounds like the rantings of a kid in junior high. This is not
credible, authoritative writing. Just ramblings.

I can assure you that the author of that review has forgotten more about
Windows operating systems than many people will ever know about.
 
That might be. But he still writes like a kid. Based on the article in
question, I can't lend much credibility to his ramblings.

Indeed. Saying something "sucks" in a "detailed review and analysis" kinda
blows your credibility.

It is just another case of turning a newsgroup into a poor-man's blog. Such
pseudo-bloggers use the ng because they think they will get wider
readership. That much is true. I wouldn't bother visiting a site written
this way.
