Joe Wilcox at Microsoft Watch wrote a screed about why Leopard isn’t better than Vista. I subscribe to the Watch feed, so I was a bit surprised and disappointed in how weakly the article was argued. I left a comment on the site, reproduced here:

Wednesday, 31 October 2007

Smug Ugly: Taking A Joke Too Seriously.
Monday, 29 October 2007
In case you hadn’t heard, the picture above represents the icon used by Apple to depict Windows shares on the network. A BSOD machine. Most people think this is humorous, as do I.
