I'm glad you guys sent feedback. My concern is people who don't really know much about Mac OS X will read that article and just believe it. Years from now, will we hear "Mac OS X sucks because... there are no 3rd party applications"? (Insert any other point from argument here).

RacerX hit almost every point I'd make, with the exception of FREE developer tools which twyg & holmbrew mentioned. A well-written windows users feedback like BlingBling's is also essential for this "reviewer" to hear.

Now let's hope the site gives reason a chance and publishes these corrections.

Interesting... so this so-called review has now been removed from reviewboard.com's site. Maybe an editor finally got a chance to read the article and realized it was a flame, not a review.

An honest review of the G4 powerbook

Philip Ferreira took the time and effort to give the TiBook a good honest look in his review entitled: Will the real G4 Powerbook Review Please Stand Up? (which you can find here: http://www.reviewboard.com/Section/N...ks/g4powerbook ). It covers all the important points that I wanted looked at, which was mainly that someone who had actually seen a TiBook give the review. All and all I am quite happy, with the notable exception of the language of point 4 of his postscript (but I imagine anyone hit with that many negative e-mails has some right to be a little up set ).
