Curt,

Thank you for responding.

I think you've missed a significant point of the article, and later I 
could put together a rebuttal.

However, at this point the preview of the article is just to determine 
whether or not TLUG members feel that the article falls within a 
category of content that is appropriate for the TLUG web site.

Unless you are objecting to the concept of the article being hosted on 
tlug.jp, I'd like to defer more robust discussion of the premise until 
after it goes public. Not least because I feel that counter arguments 
such as yours will fall into some general categories, in which case if I 
or anyone were to address them, it could be done with a broader 
perspective on the whole of the counter claims. Again, assuming it gets 
attention.

Which reminds me of two points, actually...

It would be nice to have some kind of comments or response ability of 
the web site. At minimum, I'll just put up my email address. At best, a 
moderated comments ability would be good. Moderated because I have no 
interest in the "wIndoWs RUL3Z linuX SUX!" kind of response that you get 
on so many sites that invite comments. Does any functionality to support 
that kind of thing exist in or around tlug.jp?

The second point is what design context would the article ultimately be 
placed into? If needed, I could whip up a little formatting and style so 
it's a little nicer to look at than the plain text form it's in now. But 
if it's going to be on a page that conforms to an existing design, then 
that's cool too. Basically, just let me know if I should pretty it up a 
little.
