bundling apps with the OS must be harmful afterall

["Lewis A. Mettler" <lmettler@lamlaw.com>]

I submitted the "Bill Gates" article to ZDNet as an op-ed piece.

http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/comment/0,5859,2410424,00.html

Most interesting is that they changed the title.  My title was as it was
submitted on this list.  It does not mean they agree.  But, it does mean
they understand the issue.

Oh.  And as I recall, when it was posted here it was just one more post
without a meaningful reply on this list.

So I assume:

1) not everyone on this list actively posts their views
2) some who do have their head in the sand
3) some post their views but could not figure out how to challenge the
article
4) or, some of those who do not like the consumer perspective only
attack the author personally instead of addressing the issue

For sure, #1 is true.  Others have admitted that #2 is true.  I assume
#3 is true in part.  And, #4 has been demonstrated as well.  (no names,
everyone can draw their own conclusions)
