StedeBonnet | 8 years ago | on: Ubuntu 17.10 is fantastic

"Canonical has done amazing job considering that the Artful release date is just 6 months after the announcement to switch their desktop strategy."

The point is that their switch from Unity to Gnome has been well executed, considering the tight time window of just 6 months. Obviously Gnome & contributors have made the enablers.

Looking around the site and other pieces written by the same nick, I find it unfair to label him as "Microsoft hostile". After all, he has written a quite favorable review of a cheapo 7" Windows 8.1 tablet.

Why so negative?

The post 1st validates Microsoft claims whether they hold. His tests show that Edge is faster on SunSpider/Octane, but not by the margin that Microsoft suggested. The article also points out that old HW is used as the test bench and that HW will make a difference.

Then the article expands the scope to other benchmarks, and there is a (subjective opinion) that Peacekeepers results hold in real world.

I can't see where the author is upset. Rather I see a typical geek hobbyist experiment and the results posted to a FORUM community - not to a professional or scientific publication.
