What gets me about stories like this, is the way incompetent people manage to grab positions of wealth and power.
Never mind the fact that Ken Brown's article is biased. It's supposed to be biased. Microsoft is paying the Alexis de Toqueville Institute for a propaganda article. Nothing new here, get used to it.
The point I'm making is that there are thousands of writers out there who could write anti-Linux propaganda ten times better than Brown can. They've been to journalism school. They know to read some background before flying across the Atlantic to interview somebody. Brown doesn't know to do that, and he's not smart enough to figure it out for himself. But he's got the prominent, well-paid job while a lot of competent writers are struggling on the bottom rung of the journalism ladder.
