just to make this clear: the site is someone's private joke, as is said at  
the bottom of the main page:
All DivisionTwo content is written by Garrison Netzel.  All columnists,  
authors, reporters, and articles are fictitious.

so you can relax...

Well, what was actually hurting was not the article itself, just
that there are lots of people out there that write these ill
documents and zillions of Joe newbies that go read these stuff.

What came to my mind was the linuxiran.org community, which is a
collection of newbies that all feel they are experts and write
article not much better than this Windows vs Linux one.  One of
them was saying why Libranet is better than Fedora, and the
reason was that I like a pure untouched *Linux*, not something
like BlueCurve theme that Fedora has!  Just imagine, you write as
you are a pro in the field, and you compare distros based on
their theme...

Why we better Linuxers don't have PR people or the time to write
god knows...

Guys, dont take Mr. Lopez too seriously.

I gotta admit that I haven't really read it. Just by skimming over it 
raised a smile  reduced respect for the writer. He is probably a 
genious for getting to such a radical conclusion.In ~1.5 pages... . This 
article looks like spam with all those paragraphs ending with 
*Advantage: Windows and the **pompous** grand conclusion: Final 
Score: Windows 5, Linux 0. *The choice is obvious*. Yeah, right. 
Switching back to Windows tomorrow.

Gimme a break, Lopez.

Give HIM a break - this entire site is a fake. I though this should
be clear from the last couple of points.
I just didn't want to spoil the joke by giving a warning (here, now
I've done it).

It's a spoof. It's a joke. It's ironic. Just a couple of examples:
I especially like the four games it comes with - Hearts, FreeCell (so 
addictive!), Minesweeper, and Solitaire. It's easy to see why XP is 
considered the ultimate platform for gamers.

with Windows XP I don't gotta worry about emailing viruses to my friends 
and family at all. The built-in email client Outlook Express does it 
automatically, in the background.

With Windows XP Home, I have the peace of mind that comes with knowing 
my habits and activities are being monitored by Microsoft, and my 
computer's hardware configuration and list of installed software is 
being stored in a database in Redmond.

Windows Longhorn will be like having a little cop right inside your 
computer, something MCSEs such as myself have been demanding for years.

Is the irony *so* obscure?

I don't know about *good* PR. The best we could come up with was a walla 
article quoting a death threat jokingly made by Doron, and attributing 
it to digitas. Still, we do have *a* PR forum (loosly speaking hosted by 
Hamakor). You can contact it at pr at hamakor org il.
