Side note: Yesterday, there is another vile case (among many recent ones)
where a Microsoft proxy (it even states this in the footer) writes C|Net
columns to attack the European Commission or Free Software Foundation while
defending Microsoft. It truly begins to seem as though C|Net/ZDNet is no
better than the pro-national agenda Fox News. There are no columns written
by 'the other side'. Disgrace for the media... yesterday they had a
promotional plug for Microsoft in HPC, apparently disguised as an article
that quotes Microsoft and offers no balance... the Get the Facts ads in the
site leave little room for doubt. Be wary of what you see in the 'mainstream
media'.
