The fifty percent Ms, er Myth Elke den Ouden
What they didn't tell you was that the device was a singing Bass and
that that the battery cover had a small screw.
So like a typical story with research, there's no link to the research, and relies way too much on an argument from authority that emanates from a single Reuters feed. Does it tell you which company sponsors the research/ program? You can read the piece and work that out.
So there's two things to think about:) complexity in design and simplicity in "reporting" the same piece is used over and over again on web design sites, product management sites and most annoyingly people using this as a way to advocate open source dev and design as providing the much needed relationship between end user and developer lacking from today's faceless corporations. Ok. You go have a non geek install any distro you like and use it for a month. Ask them just how catered to they feel.
