Why force James out of his little box - In his views Unix is bad, Linux is good - he really means NT but he cant appear too Microsoft centric or he'll lesson his "credibility".

Ease of Use - hey Microsoft is the easiest desktop UI according to him - this is a good one - I guess he's never heard of the Macintosh or in Microsoft revisionist history did Bill Gates invent the graphical UI during a pilgrimage to Tibet while trying to solve world hunger?

Windows CE - he's even got good things to say here against any realistic measure of marketshare or customer acceptance ...now you can figure out what his agenda is.

in short - James's agenda isnt going to change so while we all wish he had the wit and sly charm of a Twister no amount of pleading with him is going to do any good.
