Well done. Youse guys don't remember Sean Fulton? He was one of the original writing staff for "Unix Today," nee "Open Systems Today." One of the all-time great computer industry rags; I nearly cried to see it die. Their coverage was sometimes not the greatest, but they usually managed to finish the job by "the next issue." I remember Sean's writing well, he seemed to be one of the few scribblers who actually had some understanding of what he was writing about. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
