While I've heard it argued that Linux OS's have too many ways of doing any given task, this is the first mention that there are too few package managers. I thought that Yast, Urpmi, Emerge, Apt-Get, and Yum (just to name a few) were what we collectively refer to as package managers. They even have auto update ancillary programs.. to do exactly what the author of this article states isn't available on Linux.

This one reads like a professional troll. Or like an article written by someone that didn't even look at the subject matter. Anyone writing "don't flame me, I'm not advocating for Microsoft" as an excuse for not researching what they write should have their keyboard revoked.
