Biography of Andrew Orlowski: he is a citizen of UK, who lived in San Francisco, USA, but now again lives in UK, London. Ancestors of Andrew Orlowski were Polish citizens, who stayed in UK after World War 2, because Poland was then occupied by Soviet Union and some Poles didn´t want to live under Soviet Occupation and stayed "in the west". Poles were one of the most effective fighters in "Battle of Britain" (second after Englishmen) and some of ancestors of Andrew Orlowski were fighting in it too. He is working now as an editor for "The Register" - a UK based publication dedicated to:

showing off British achievements - it is promoting Britain and British industry first and only secondly it is reporting about other issues
syndicating content from other sources and pretending, that it is their own
anti-Microsoft bashing - that in reality is just a pose to attract naive people, who think that "The Register is fighting evil" ; moreover "The Register" from time to time is seeking new targets, and is bashing not only Microsoft but also some other major companies - no matter if it is based on facts or just on the desire to attract reader in "the tabloid style"
The Register is a dirty tabloid and it shows in many ways - they are publishing for example without a permission emails that were intended as private, and also they are publishing anonymous emails that contain offensive content - even if information from these anonymous emails is not confirmed and a lie!

As a proof that The Register in no way is an objective publication, is a fact that it was nominated by Nokia for "Evangelist Award" - for evangelizing of Symbian Series 60 platform.

Andrew Orlowski specializes - within the frame of "The Register" - in reporting about Microsoft´s efforts in cell phone industry, or rather in ridiculing and critizing of these efforts. msmobiles.com asked him in April 2003 about what he thinks about "Microsoft entering cell phone industry"? His answer was:

A broader question is why no one wants to do business with MSFT? In theory = good proposition.
