Dan Gillmore sugarcoats Apple's lies
Apple fan and San Jose Mercury News columnist is apparently concerned that his run of evaluation hardware out of Cupertino will dry up, as he really dances around the key issues in Apple's controversial G5 benchmarks. In what is purportedly a Q & A column (one gets the feeling that Dan is writing both the questions and the answers in order to avoid answering the really hard questions), Dan mentions the "dispute" over Apple's benchmarks, but adds, "there's no doubt that these are fast machines." Regarding the debate over Apple's bogus benchmark claims, he writes, "I'm not sufficiently expert on this. But one of Apple's people made a strong defense on Slashdot the other day." Uh-huh. Actually, they didn't. But good news, Dan, your G5 eval unit is on the way, as you passed the test.
