A front page areticle: "A spy in the house of Linux"

One thing I note is that she compares the difficulty of installing
linux with the ease of using Windows that is pre-installed. She says
nothing at all about installing Windows, and it's unlikely that she
has ever tried it. Maybe we should all send her email pointing this
out. A comparison of the ease of installing both systems would be
interesting and meaningful, as would a comparison of the ease of
using various pre-installed versions of both. But comparing a
pre-installed Windows with a do-it-yourself linux is a typical thing
done by marketing people. It's really propaganda, not comparison.
