This isn't free advice, it's free whining. And if it was re-worded as advice, it would still be a terrible article.
Points like "don't make hardware that breaks", "don't make batteries that run down fast", "don't make noisy laptops", does he really imagine that Dell, Sony et al are sat reading and muttering to themselves "holy cow, why didn't we think of these ideas"?
Not to mention that half of the feedback isn't even about PC manufacturers, is about Windows.
This is exactly my point though. I underline in the post that these are way to obvious things yet it is not easy to find a good PC-Laptop that delivers all these qualities.
