Sys-Con Taking Some Heat – Update
May 11, 2005 2 Comments
As a follow-up to this story, it looks like Maureen O'Gara will no longer be writing for sys-con. In addition, old material is being removed from the sites. Good to see that sys-con came to their senses and kudos to the LinuxWorld editors who chose to take a stand on this.

Now it looks like the editors whose firm stance got Maureen O'Gara pruned from sys-con tree have circled their wagons yet again.
