- Thanks for reminding me (accurately) about what he said (not that it
- matters much, but I thought he'd said it about Windows). He managed to
- take swipe at both an OS and an entire gender with one ignorant swipe.
- Actually, he did me a favor: I no longer read him. There's getting to
- be ever less worth reading in PC Magazine these days. It may pay to
- drop my subscription and just buy, at the newstand, the issues that
- concern me.
-
- Season's Greetings!
