Sadly, I agree. Infoworld STILL sees this as a problem with zealots and ballot stuffers. Once this 'blows over', I fully expect OS/2 users to continue to have to live with digs and jibes (based on fact or not). The concerns of OS/2 users will still be largely ignored (Except to highlight the "success" of MS products).
One of the things that upsets me is the utter contempt that Ms. Reed holds for IW readers that do not share her vision of the future. She forgets that hers is not a leadership position; IW's business is providing information we, the professionals, require to make decisions. Ms. Reed would make our decisions for us. If the facts don't support her, she has no problem with slanting the data to support her position. This practice is dishonest at best, and has no place in a magazine that claims to be "the Voice of Client/Server in the Enterprise".
More disturbing, I am sure that her attitude towards OS/2 users is DESIGNED to make us all go away. I think she believes that if she disgusts us enough, we'll just leave. She may be right.
For OS/2 professionals, users, developers, and enthusiasts, this is business as usual. I am most disappointed that IW has fallen to the ranks of the mainstream PC press. That is why I have taken Infoworld out of circulation at our company. We already receive too many "trash rags".
