TheRegister and fiction by AlistairMcMillan · 2002-09-12 04:03 · Score: 1 · on KDE Adopting Mono

You need to keep in mind that TheRegister is a tabloid of the tech news world.

They repeatedly take a little piece of news, and try to infer some big story out of it.

A few years ago they posted a story that Microsoft had decided to cancel the Windows98 Second Edition project only a month or two before it's release.

What had actually happened was Microsoft had moved some of their programmers from the Win98 team to the Windows 2000 team.

Everyone else reported the programmers being moved, TheReg reported that Win98SE was cancelled.

They do this kind of thing all the time. Also they rarely list their sources, so when a story from TheReg is repeated at Slashdot or OSNews or wherever, it makes it impossible to check the authenticity of the story.

They are a tabloid. I wish everyone would just ignore them, or take everything they post with the pinch of salt it requires.

Next thing you know Slashdot will post links to stories in The Sun.
