Hey, anybody noticed?

PC Week is a ZD publication. As I understand it, ZD is held by contracts to "publish in Microsoft's interest". Now:

The week of "Scalability Day" PCW published >>three<< columns highly critical of Microsoft's claims (one called it Scamability week), and this week they published a major article ripping apart Microsoft's methodology, plus a few other hits in other places - and a feature columnist said he would have done it if it hadn't been done so well elsewhere in the magazine. This week they have started to rip up the NetPC in no uncertain terms.

InfoWorld has been little short of worshipful on both thse counts, and never misses an opportunity to say the NetPC will kill the NC's market, that Java is loosing momentum and that NT is awesomly scalable.

Just exactly who is bound to "publish in Microsoft's interest" here????????
