this article is bullshit,

for those who did not read this acticle; it talked at length about the 
"merits" of using windows software, here are some quotes from the article:

"Works well with others", "Guaranteed 
Compatability", "You know it's going to work with any of the third-party 
products out there", "Using Windows-friendly tools like HTML and XML" and 
later it says "While it's technically possible to create custom OS/2 implementations that allow 
for use of such tools, it's a complicated and expensive process"

and so on and so forth... pretty much a plug for MS software if you ask 
me....
