Yep - quite a short feature and he didn't really push the security aspects 
of FireFox/Thunderbird, which was a shame.  All in all not a bad bit of 
publicity though.  Pitting the Gimp against Photoshop might've been a bit 
harsh - comparing against Paint Shop Pro would've been fairer.

I wonder how many converts a short feature like that gets...
