 Retr0rob rated 7 months ago- While this site is interesting it has a def. anti freeware/shareware slant. There are plenty of expensive software packages that win awards and do not function as advertised - for example Symantec Backup Exec has won several awards yet the linux component has had numerous recovery issues and the cli...

- Nicely ignores the fact that the majority of the web relies on what they would term "freeware". If the main point behind this argument were true (payware good, freeware bad) then the tech-support industry wouldn't exist because Windows would be flawless. Incidentally I have some experience using watchguard's shoddy routers and believe me they are in no position to pass judgment on the quality of anyones software.

- This article has NOTHING to do with why you should or should not rely on Freeware -- it has everything to do with why you should not rely on specious software awards. But then I have never met anyone who did -- seriously -- 20+ years around computers and not one person who's said "Hey blingfuck here has a super-mega-cool award from wehypeshit.com -- I think I'll put it on my computer. So, in a nutshell, this article is as worthless as wehypeshit.com is.

- it just goes to show that this methodology can be applied to other technologies, not just "award giver" websites... such as an internal network of 16 computers deciding on the next lottery winner. All have the potential to be biased towards a certain winner.
