By all means, send him an email and set him straight.  But the most
effective criticisms are the ones that are focused.  He will never
publish your response if you call him a general jerk -- he probably
will not publish direct criticisms, anyway -- but he might respond --
even in print -- to a reasoned argument that using an operating system
that does not have to fend off three virus attacks per week by
constant patching is a strategy less advantageous to the user than
using an operating system that has more robust security.
