- People put too much emphasis on what columnists writes and say they
- use. Today Dvorak is hot on the product and he is a hero and his
- comments are used as shining examples on why everybody should follow
- his advice. Tomorrow he has a few problems, hears rumours about
- some new whiz bang system and reports that IBM has missed the boat
- again. His previous supporters now jump right in step with him,
- feel let down, or say that he was a bum anyway and who listens to
- him.
-
- Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, and I do not want to
- start a debate over it, but I really hope that people would be more
- objective and use and support what is right for them, or what they
- believe the product could/will be. Read and absort all the
- information available, and then make your own decisions.
