I must admit I'm not a big fan of Brislen. Mostly jealousy I think - gets to
write for PC Mags as well as TopGear Mag.

Get a bit sick of seeing him on T.V. every time they need an I.T. "expert"
for a news comment.

Having said that, I think Nick did definitely get worked up over a minor
issue. I think the sub-headline was wrong - but Nick could have handled it a
bit better.

Wow. 
a) Did Nick go off the deep end and/or 
b) am I just a biased kiwi who used to really enjoy "Fry Up" when Paul
Brislen was writing it and/or
c) something else. Please specify:

Reminds me of my days in the Macintosh*** Users Group when a PC* ** nazi
mentioned any comparison
between the aforementioned hated product and the aforementioned glorious
Macintosh***.

*hiss

(twice) as the hated
fascist/communist/dictatorship/pseudodemocratic/evil phrase "PC"*
***all bow in silence for several seconds.
