Since when did we juxtapose technical articles w/ marketing literature?

You mean it is not just dishonest, but very dishonest??? Mike, I think you are either not reading or comprehending.

You asked how many articles I have written. I answered. The sentence you wrote was somewhat incomplete. I inferred your question to be what technical articles I have written that could be read by IT execs...

FWIW, techncial articles are not (at least not supposed) to be marketing pieces. Unfortunatley, there is a lot going on here that would indicate that the lines between marketing and technical merit have been blurred. Specifically, I direct you to the VB vs. C# issues.
