1. Who was doing Hillary's media strategy? He should hire them.
One thing about her campaign was that they could play the media like a fiddle. Well, once they got serious about competing anyway.

2. He's grabbing plenty of headlines
I'm sure his speech today will be all over the teevee news tonight.

3. Agreed, he's doing just fine
I think the OP is looking for a circus, which is exactly what we don't need.

6. I'm looking for media coverage that people care about, which I don't see on the nightly news.

9. I was joking.
Thought I might start a Microsoft - Apple war on the site, just for a change of pace.

7. Vista isn't that scary
At least in a home computing environment. Any of the problems I've had with it are to be blamed on poorly written software, not the OS itself. The biggest problem I had was ZoneAlarm, I ditched that and it's working great now.

10. It's not about software. XP is just an example of what can be used to get media play. n/t
