Derrick, I don't think anyone is "beating" on either the article or author. They are simply giving their opinion about an article which they feel is unworthy to grace the pages of "Mac Dev Center". That's what "TalkBacks" are for aren't they? If you want "beatings", you should submit this article to "slashdot.org". I think it could spark some really nice flames. CJ

  Well, I think some of the opinions are a bit strong in their phrasing. I'm simply asking that we focus on being constructive and watch the charged language. One of the great things about this community is that there is more courtesy than with some other sites we all know about.
  
  I'm not saying that we should overlook anything in the text of our articles. No way! Rather, keep the focus on making things right.
  
  Thanks...

  If "some of the opinions are a bit strong in their phrasing", it is because most of us have come to believe in the equation of my subject line. And having this article being published by O'Reilly seems to violate that equation.
  
  The information in the article is at the very least misleading and bad advice, if not wrong. I would have hoped that O'Reilly would have corrected the article (or even retracted it) after readers pointed out the inaccuracies.
