ITWire: "Linux users can, at times, be the worst kind of ingrates, whining and complaining about what they perceive as missing features in a free operating system. My advice to all such whingers: spend 10 days using the latest version of Windows and you'll realise that you are living in a world of relative bliss."

It's not about ignoring Windows. It's about people writing the useless articles with the sole purpose in my view to start arguments, and how sites such as this constantly post them.
This is not OSBlogs.com, it's OSNews.com.
OSNews has its faults, but let's face it, the criticism people like you sling at it would make any reasonably independent observer suspect that if you were to take over editorship, a more reasonable name for it would be "OSBendOverBackwardsAndLetMickeySoft-
TakeMeUpTheAssPropaganda.com".
Like it or not, whilst non-Microsoft products/OSes have their faults, so do Microsoft products.

I am unclear how preferring quality well balanced articles rather than cheap low quality rants by people who are clearly intent on making controversy fits with your comment. It doesn't make sense.
If you bothered to read what I've said in the past, you'd realise that I've actually criticised Microsoft and praised Linux and Unix. Perhaps you'll have your doubts, but I make my living off Solaris and Linux.
Also, making it personal demonstrates you don't have a valid argument and must resort to cheap tactics such as offensive insults.
