	JOHN C. DVORAK, Real Computing
		DVORAK: We have with us Gerry Goldsholle who is the Chairman of Advice and Counsel, on-line publishers that have, among other things, the AttorneyPages.com, the ExpertPages.com, which contain the listings of expert witnesses for you lawyers out there, and FreeAdvice.com, which is kind of—well, I don’t know, Jerry.
		DVORAK: And I suppose if nothing else, the kind of legal advice that you get tends… most legal advice, in fact, tends to be reinventing the wheel constantly, because people have the same questions over and over.
		DVORAK: In fact, a lot of people don’t realize it technically, if I go to New York and check into a hotel and I work for PC Magazine there, and I write a column in the hotel room, I’m actually liable for city tax for that, supposedly.

	John C. Dvorak (Udolpho)
		John C. Dvorak… One of the things that makes computer pundit John Dvorak a classic read is that he is willing to believe anything he hears.
		Dvorak has been surrounded by the latest in consumer technology for twenty years yet has managed to preserve the clueless innocence of someone who has just seen a computer for the first time.
		Dvorak's PC Magazine columns, I confess, are something of a camp treasure for me, especially Inside Track, in which he is reliably wrong about several different subjects every two weeks.

	Van Smith assaults John Dvorak's column
		Dvorak, you would be doing your readers a greater service by simply stating the facts surrounding issues that you discuss and letting these readers come to their own conclusions.
		Dvorak is being deliberately disingenuous, or he has a shockingly misguided understanding of the dynamics of the computer industry.
		Dvorak stoop to such a "hack job" as this version of "Inside Track" clearly is – and a poorly written hack job at that (I am still befuddled by his reference to IBM).

	The Dvorak Keyboard -- a Primer
		There were several variations in the Dvorak's design in its first few decades, but these were settled when the American National Standards Institute approved a standard for the layout of the Dvorak in 1982.
		Dvorak (Univ. of Washington, Seattle; b.1894, d.1975) used his research to design two other keyboards specifically for people with only one hand (one each for the right and left), which allow people with the use of just one hand to type very easily and efficiently -- at speeds up to 50 wpm.
		On Dvorak, the keys on the home row make up literally thousands of words (we have a list of nearly 5000 from one electronic dictionary alone!), meaning you could have typed real words on your first day of typing class...

	One question: Is John Dvorak on drugs? » Mathew Ingram: mathewingram.com/work (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		I know PC Magazine columnist John Dvorak likes to be controversial, likes to think outside the box - heck, even outside the universe that contains the concept of “boxes” - but his latest column on Apple is a new low (or high, depending on your perspective).
		Dvorak’s latest brain-wave is that Apple is plotting behind the scenes to dump the Mac OS and run Windows.
		But the biggest weapon in Dvorak’s arsenal is, of course, the switch to using Intel chips.

	The Mac Observer - John Dvorak Slams Microsoft Calling MS Innovation Claims A Joke
		John Dvorak is well known in the Mac community for his frequent attacks on Apple (some deserved), his call that the iMac would flop, and his coining of the term "Girlie" in reference to the iBook.
		Dvorak's assertion is that contrary to their repeated bleating of Microsoft and their PR firms, the company has never been an innovative one.
		Dvorak's position is similar to our own in regards to Microsoft's "innovation." We have said from the beginning that it seems as if Microsoft thinks that repeating the word "innovation" enough times will get other people to believe it, though at times it seems like they might actually believe it themselves.

		Dvorak says they're masochists, but if they were, they wouldn't fill Dvorak's e-mail box with flames after reading his columns on the Mac.
		For John, the industry is interesting, but not as compelling as it used to be in the days of hypergrowth and breakthroughs.

	molly.com » Dear John (Dvorak)
		Eric Meyer kann der Haltung Dvoraks sogar nch etwas Gutes abgewinnen: Consequently, it reminds us to keep advocating for greater consistency between browsers, to praise the efforts of browser makers in that direction, and to help them correct their course when they move in the wrong direction—and to do so constructively, not destructively.
		It bugs John (and a select few who don’t understand it) and this is one of the problems with the web professional community in its current state.
		Dvorak’s soapboxing reminds me of Richard Petty’s reactions to Danica Patrick enjoying a measure of success in car racing, in that he’s giving away his own obselescence in the industry.

	John Dvorak gives interesting reason for MSFT’s bad press « Scobleizer - Tech Geek Blogger
		John Dvorak has an interesting theory about media bias and technology reporting.
		Dvorak hangs out with guys like Leo Laporte and Kevin Rose, who are Mac people, so maybe he assumes more people are keen on the Mac than they really are.
		Dvorak does not, and has never cared about any reaction to his writing but one: that you do react, and strongly.

	John Dvorak should stop talking Petition
		In this time it is easy to see a progression of Dvorak’s mental state from healthy and sane into where he is now: a delusional lunatic who is either so out of touch with reality he believes what he says, or just likes to hear his own voice.
		Furthermore, we wish to have a moratorium on Dvorak making any sort of announcements, revelations, or engaging in any other public communication until a time when he is deemed ready for reentry into society.

	John Dvorak doesnt think the 6500 will be a hit? @ Mobility Today (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		John I am shocked at you of all people to comment on a device that hasn't officially been announced nevertheless base your professional opinion on speculation...Whats even worse for an Investors publication..What are your thoughts?
		I don't think HP has ever intended that any of their converged offerings would even attempt to overtake the likes of Nokia, Motorola, Samsung etc. With overall mobile phone sales of 700 million units last year (and growing this year) HP is not trying to crack the overall market.
		Of course, if Dvorak did his own due dilligence and took a look at niche market that HP is getting into here, then perhaps it would make more sense to him.

		In a recent PC Magazine article "Podcasting: Not Ready for Prime Time", John Dvorak (not the creator of the keyboard, mind you) lets us know that Podcasting isn't perfect for everyone yet.
		I think that John has been hanging out with the khakis and blue shirt set a bit much.
		For John to have devolved into calling these people who are passionate about this particular technology a bunch of pot-smoking hippies seems pretty dumb for someone who has been around as long as Dvorak has.

		In Dvorak's next literary masterpiece, he will congratulate himself for speaking out loud regarding the need for a headless mac (earlier last year) and how Jobs must have heard his prose and made it so.
		Dvorak seems to forget the "engineering" that went into the original Mac and seems to assume that Apple did not test these machines in extreme environmental conditions.
