I'm sorry but an article including "Microsoft is dying" in its name better be more based on facts about the whole company than being mostly about a format which Microsoft never cared much about.
I am not a MS fanboy (I don't own a 360), and what I posted is nothing directed to you personally. I openly admitted that I didn't read the whole article (because frankly I don't care about the detailed history of HD-DVD).
Furthermore, after reading Bod's remarks, it's very obvious that it would be a waste of time to read this article. Who cares about doingpoint-to-point rebuttals when the general tone of the article itself reveals that we shouldn't trust the author and his arguments? If we paid that much attention to every "microsoft is dying" article, we'd be discussing them all day, because there are many! |
"Microsoft is dying" wasn't in the original title. I added that for more hits. ...and Bod isn't the know all end all of the internet. Sometimes its best to think for yourself. |
Nice move with the title then, especially when you're accusing people of fanboyism. In any case, the blog posting does talk about "Microsoft's dying empire".
It's not really about what Bod thinks about it, it's about the things he pointed out. Think of it as a proof by counter example. He pointed out some things in the article which, to me, are enough to make me disregard the article as mediocre at best.
