Summary: Warning about the descending publication pace and quality at The Inquirer

THE Inquirer seems to be continuing its sad demise. The founder, Mike Magee, had left not so long ago, the publication rate fell by almost half earlier this year and the reporting has been fairly poor since then. Two days ago they announced the release (final) of Firefox 3.5. The comments had it corrected repeatedly.

A reader has mailed us the following warning about what he considers “standard hardware” FUD:

This is a weird piece from the inquirer. Usually they write better articles.I’m wondering if it has the stench of Enderle. The jab at the bottom is pure disinformation and contradicted.Using Intel is just bad business whether you are in the EU, Asia or the US.2005:http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/4675849.stm2006:http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/04/technology/04intel.htmlhttp://www.betanews.com/article/Korean-Antitrust-…2007:http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2007/07/eu-slap…2008:http://news.cnet.com/8301-1001_3-9993451-92.htmlhttp://arstechnica.com/hardware/news/2008/06/south-korea-fi…http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/07/technolo…2009:http://venturebeat.com/2009/04/23/european-union-expec…Using x86 at all just further entrenches Intel even if other vendors are used. Since it will be some weeks before Oracle is able to make an official press release and road map for its recent acquisitions, Microsoft astroturfers can have an unopposed field day.

This would not be a sole example. █
