Paul Thurrot spreads more crud. (Legally speaking he could be sued for his Tiger review...and should).

I, for one, would like to see you outline the legal basis on how Thurrot can be sued.

And seriously, who (and why) pays attention to Thurrot anymore? Must be a slow day.
One iMac, iBook, one iPod, way too many PCs.
