I don't agree: we have no reason to doubt his claim that he wrote a task switcher for DOS. That means he's reasonably clueful. It's easy to dismiss someone as a complete loony, because he's wrong/confused about some things and is getting burned to the ground for that. Remove the flaming and there is criticism and the pointing out of mistakes, but nothing to indicate the guy has no clue whatsoever. If that were the case, it would be hard to even being criticising the idea. The fact that people could succinctly point out the problems means the ideas were stated in reasonably clear language.
