Yeah, I'm not a huge fan either and find him somewhat objectionable. Orlowski's the only one that used to turn off commenting on his articles which is half the fun of the reg, though he seems to do this less now. But every publication, in print or online, is going to have a writer who you just never get on with intellectually.
There's plenty of other good contributors such as Duncan Campbell [0] and Alastair Daabs [1] that more than make up for the Orlowski deficit.
The stance is one that reasonable people can disagree on but he resorts to childish insults.
Also he's a climate science denier which is just so odd in the IT world since for me I always associate IT as close to science in that you must deal with reality even if you don't like it.
