My response to Richard Stallman
Talkback Apparently, we are to assume that, when RMS writes something, his words mean what John Carroll says they mean rather than what the writings of Richard Stallman themselves may say. News flash: "Carroll says that proprietary software is important, in...

So, what's this Firefox thing then?

The CCIA report - why the remedies are unfair
Talkback As John Carroll thinks about the CCIA report, I think similarly about his report. He accuses them of being anti-MS at every opportunity in the report. I accuse him of being pro-MS at every opportunity in his article.

Firefox? Bah Humbug, I say
Talkback John Carroll. You are a muppet. I honestly cannot believe you are suggesting the Firefox team put Microsoft's 'intellectual property' into their web browser. Also, as a web developer, IE has given me more than it's fair share of problems.
