This just in, "Shiny things costs the Economy $999 million dollars a year!"
If you factor in all the time that people are distracted by the tip of thier ball point pen, or a nice car driving by, and not working at there job. It would equal $999 million dollars!
If this virus costs $250 million dollars to the economy and is also a result of Microsoft's security flaws, how does this make Microsoft cheaper then Linux?
I'd like to believe in good journalisim, but the eweek.com article from post] is a total rant. The guy just seems mad that he's getting flooded by email. It looks like he was reading slash dot, and read this joke:
"Quick, disable your AV software, and get some Windows boxes on the internet!"
Which he must have taken to seriously. Then instead of writing a response to the person saying "Hey, not funny, this is serious." he writes an article about it.
So is this what qualifies as a good journalistic article? Bitching about what people say on a message forum? What's his next article going to be? Bitching about ricer's on automotive forums because they support loud exhauts, which makes them there own enemy?
Maybe everyone here should apply for this guys job, because it seems that we can all do just as good of a job.
