Bob Metcalfe is just another example of a computer journalist caught up
in the buzzwords of the current technology. It's sad to see such rubbish
in news, but hey, it's how they make the money. It's very disappointing
that he attempts to DEFEND his cluelessness against some of the BEST in
the industry.
