I saw nothng in the article that mentioned anything about being denied
the right to know what those changes were.

Moreso, I would tend to disregard anything by that author or ste as
yellow journalism:

Vole: three refernces
Microtus Sneakicus: one reference
I have never found name calling to be required. On the contrary, it is

[1] I used to engage in it; then I realised it was childish and undercut
my own arguments.
Maybe I read "apparently" into the following
phrase, "There are no software conflicts caused

Aw, come on... This site is funny in a satire
type mode...
Surely there is room for satire in the arena of
computing and especially end user issues in
computing!
Furthermore isn't it and hasn't it always been
true that the biggest gorilla on the block is
always the target of satire and doesn't satire
always use pseudonyms for their targets?
Granted this isn't Ibsen we are talking here but
these guys are kinda funny and quite often on
topic of the current issues of the day in
computing. This is just one of many sites I
check for current news in computing (I've been
meaning to ask a question on the list of what
others consider good and unusual tech news sites...)
SOMETHING has to be funny about M$!
