The PC Press, especially ZD has been biased towards MS from the beginning.

The articles they wrote about OS/2. back in the old days, always contained
words like "struggling," "failing,"  "dead,"  while articles about Windows
contained words like "latest" and "cool."

One of the most significant things to come out of the Enron mess is that the
company *paid* reporters and journalists basically for doing nothing.  It is
inconceivable that these payments didn't affect the reporter's coverage.

I have no doubt that Microsoft also *paid* "journalists" then and now.

Hideous!  Those PC writers are the truest form of scum.  There is a very low
floor in Hell waiting for them.
