Re: Digg article: Goodbye Windows Dev - hello Apple!

I knew him on IRC for years. There are far worse things I know about this
guy that newsgroup guidelines prevent me from posting :-)

Overall though my impression of Jamie's programming abilities were quite jaw
dropping, but certainly not in an impressive way. Sufficient to say that
there were only a few skilled programmers in the #Delphi IRC channel on
EFNET and I certainly wouldn't have considered Jamie part of that small
group :-)

I certainly wouldn't waste my time reading technical postings from this guy.
I'd also suspect that his posting is some kind of attention seeking grand
announcement of his arrival by telling MacOS users that he has just
discovered they were right all along (captive audience).
