>> It was a bit harsh, and I apologize.
Thank you. Same here.
>> And I am glad that there are people like you
around who can write
authoritatively on a subject that non-tech people have trouble
understanding.
Well, that's just buttering me up. Thank you though. :)
>> I think the expectations placed on magazine
writers are unrealistic and
driven by profit and advertiser appeasement.
There are always a minority of publications with lax ethics, as there are
always a minority of companies with lax ethics in any business. Please don't
let that or a famous case here and there lead you to think we're all a bunch of
bastards. (Last time this topic came up, I used the analogy of "how would
full-time computer nerds like it if I said you're all a bunch of socially
clueless acne-face loners," which totally backfired on me because a few people
replied and said "well that would be accurate...")
