It was only PC Pro that seemed to be taking this line - the rest of reports on Google News were accurate. They deserve a little credit for fixing this report, although still a lot of criticism for writing such a bad report in the first place. The updated report is still somewhat pro-Microsoft, and doesn't seem to have quoted anyone else, but looks factually OK.
