Just a thought... that Maddox article is pretty old... why comment now?:p

Yeah that post is very old..... plus his bashing has become very mediocre, predictable and inane lately.......

Same gags, same complaints, same boring rants.....

Maddox used to have some very good articles and points on his web site, after 2003 it has become very useless and the same material seems to be surfacing over and over again but directed at a different medium.

And I smell a Maddox troll, I know that he does tend to visit forums :D

He does that type of thing to get hits. He doesn't hide that fact, and most of it's pretty tongue in cheek. Maybe if you actually scroll down, you'd see the joke at the end about how Windows sucks too. Same with the iPhone post that's been his last update for awhile now.

Mostly he just knows that zealots will take it seriously, email him something awful, and then he can make fun of them mercilessly.

Frankly both them links are poor.

Yes Maddox has lost his edge, but that retort site is cringe worthy.

One thing Mac users can do that PC users can't.

Complete an entire sentence without cursing.


My lord that child's language was horrific.

Anyone who is offended by ANYTHING Maddox says needs to get over themselves. It's pretty obvious that everything he says is a joke.

I've never took Maddox seriously and I totally agree with your point that if you do take him seriously you do have a problem.

Maddox had the original angry rant site, things that shocked people 5 years ago don't do the same now, he's running out of ideas IMHO.....
