He had received a number of warnings from JimRob. I speculate that he drew enough fire for his attitude and comments that the Mods decided he had become a liability.
Kind of a shame -- he's obviously a bright guy and his technical insights were valuable. But his obsession with finding flaws in Apple products and declaring them abject failures was often over-the-top, and inaccurate (note that the products are quite successful despite their flaws).
I wasn't there when it happened (I'm not sure what thread finally did it) so I can't say for sure beyond the speculation above.
Thanks, Dayglored, I guess it was to be expected...
I’ll never understand his seething hatred of us who use Macintoshes.
Oh well...

This account has been banned or suspended.Maybe just a suspension, I hope.Hate to see a FReeper go; no man is an island and all that.
Of course JimRob and the Mods gotta call them as they see them, and that's that.
