Is that gonna be your article, that he is wrong ? Pretty short and uninformative.

Dvorak isn't always wrong, in fact he predicted a lot of what's been happening in the industry for a long time, and he's been right.

Thurrot has actually said positive things about the Mac.

Good luck...I guess.

I could make 20,000 predictions too, I'm sure 3 or 4 would come true.

If you're going to attack Thurrott's and Dvorak's Mac journalism for being unprofessional -which it is- you need to be careful to not be unprofessional about it yourself. You lose a lot of credibility when you do that sort of name-calling, however deserved it might be.

I will try my best or pass it on to someone else to write if I can't. Regardless at the end of the article, every article on our site, we have a free argument to cover every point of discussion and it does get noisy because one of us is OS agnostic, one won't touch Windows....I got the job cause I spend my time mostly on consoles.
