Nah. Most interesting is the way they slipped the word _choice_ into the
blurb they added:

   *** ZDNN reader Lewis Mettler offers an opinion on Microsoft's
   choice to bundle its OS with its Internet Explorer brower. ***

As for the title, yours simply wasn't very good. On the other hand, I
suspect that you object to their removal of the name Bill Gates, and I
agree that it would have been better if the name had been kept in.
