Sad to see this submission getting flagged just like it happens with any article that is not extremely negative on Microsoft. So even reviews of a Microsoft product are not welcome on HN.
Many years ago, I read a comment on Reddit calling HN a bunch of Apple fanboys. After these years I have realized it mostly consists of Google and Apple fanboys and irrational. Why else would someone with good karma go out of their way to flag this _review_ from Anandtech of all people?
I am sure people are waiting for the inevitable deprecating takes of Gruber, Marco, Siegler etc. on the Surface. Those will shoot straight up the front page.
- marknutter 14y agoHow do you know if people are flagging the article?
- tluyben2 14y agoI would like to know as well; this article ranked front page and #1 for quite a long time?
- cooldeal 14y agoSee my other comment here. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5177366 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5177366 Funnily, THAT story got flagged as well and is sitting on third page now.
- nivla 14y agoIts really interesting to see people who believe themselves as intellectually superior acting like 5 year olds when it comes to opinions that doesn't fit their stack. I started avoiding Reddit but I am increasingly going back to find news and discussions that gets flagged off from here. I hope there exists a place on the web, where news is served/discussed as facts minus all the fanboyisms. If not, I should make one for a better future.
