Thank you, Infoworld ...

I love the way these PC magazines are, one by one, discovering like Columbus that (gasp) what we've been telling them for years now is TRUE! Whodathunkit?!
I guess the PC world is like my dad ... you can tell him Macs are better until you're blue in the face, show him demonstrations et al and it falls on deaf ears ... but until a TOTAL STRANGER who's alleged to be an "expert" says so, then suddenly it's gospel.
Didn't Dilbert call this "consultant syndrome?" You pay somebody an extraordinary amount of money to come in from the outside and tell you what your field-level employees have been telling you for years?
