I would take more time to read articles like those if people would actually use intelligent arguments. Most of his points can be used against PCs aswell...

But maybe that is the point. He's saying Macs aren't perfect, they have just as many negatives (well, something like that) as a PC, so stop preaching about it.
Just a thought?

Maddox is amazing. His points are logical and his sarcasm is hilarious. He's not a "sell out" since he doesn't advertise for the site or anything..it's technically not his fault for having people come to the site.

I think people are taking this too serious, Maddox has previously stated (in his book and various interviews) that the views expressed on his site are not his own and should only be taken as satire. He used a direct example of his "For every animal you don't eat, I will eat three" campaign and said that in his everyday life, he could careless about other people consuming livestock, but that it makes for humor.
My point: Its just humor, don't get your panties in a bunch.

He sold out by making a book. Since he has had all the money coming in, he has forgot about his site following which is what made him Maddox.

His book was 100% his own, and not just a reproduction of his site, so I fail to see how he has "sold out" and also, his articles are starting to appear more frequently than before the book.

Please tell me where I stated he copied ideas from his site for his book.
He spent loads of time on his book which was only a success because of the site. Nobody would have bought his book if his site was non existant.
And his updates have NOT been more regular. If they have, he has been posting them on a different site.
However, he has updated his site again by the looks of it and I have to admit that he is very funny in his articles. But he is still a sell out.
