TG, Looks like the shark is a bigtime suckup to Intel. Cover ass IT people......Partly true, as they can say "Intel said do that" and the people lack the balls to challenge mighty Intel.
Well, I recall the same being said about IBM, and look how they fell with microchannel....all the way to earth.
Well, sharky's action are doubtless calculated to get advertising dollars.
In the print we use to call it "yellow journalism" What do we call it now? "Yellow HTML"
Ref:
Beginnings of Yellow Journalism
n 1898, newspapers provided the major source of news in America. At this time, it was common practice for a newspaper to report the editor's interpretation of the news rather than objective journalism. If the information reported was inaccurate or biased, the American public had little means for verification. With this sort of influence, the newspapers wielded much political power. In order to increase circulation, the publishers of these papers often exploited their position by sponsoring a flamboyant and irresponsible approach to news reporting that became known as "yellow journalism." Though the term was originally coined to describe the journalistic practices of Joseph Pulitzer, William Randolph Hearst proved himself worthy of the title. Today, it is his name that is synonymous with "yellow journalism."

And now Sharky leads the way with Yellow html.

The Sharky article is not well written or researched. Sharky should look to how he got where he is today, and how we can soon send him falling to earth.
