John C. Dvorak is also known for not researching information thoroughly
before writing a full page on it in PC Magazine.  Most recently he wrote
about the Chang Modification of a PC/AT clone motherboard to make it run
at 40 MHz or something like that.  Apparently, they just altered the real
time clock oscillator so that timing measurements from benchmarks were
wrong. 

I agree that he loves to be controversial and is an eternal IBM basher,
however, IBM did give him several things to pounce on like refusing to pick
up the check.  Even our PR people pay for luncheons.  Talk about CHEAP.  Is
the Micro Channel doing that poorly?
