I expect to see such f*)%^d up articles in user driven sites, not OSnews. Quality of articles on OSnews is steadily going down, the only reason I still visit it is from years of habit.

I half expected to see a MS sponsored study praising Windows, or the experience of some dude who was surprised to find Windows 2008 was pretty stable, which would have probably made me happy,

And here I am, only to find a stupid article talking about Update sever uptime!!!! Will the next article be about notepad opening faster in Windows?

You can't down mod articles in OSnews, but can down mod comments! Is it because editors selection of articles are equal to God's words and cannot be questioned but only praised (recommend)? Atleast PCworld gives the freedom to down vote and at present it has 21 negative votes against 1 up vote.

I'm taking OSnews off Google Reader, will delete OSnews account if the option is available.
