I think we should take it for what it is: a whiney rant from someone who is famous for whining about anything and everything. Why should we care what jwz thinks? Let him publicly cry and run to OSX - see if I care. Addressing the concerns of people looking for help on this list is a million times more important than some nonsense PR campaign to counter the rant of a whiney dotcom washout that happened to get slashdotted. -DR-
