That's what he's saying though is that he likes 'the cube' as a feature, not the ability to have multiple desktops. That, or I'm misunderstanding. I do know though that when I show people my ubuntu box they go NUTS over the cube so I think that is really what he's trying to show. It's nifty!

No really, he doesn't know about Spaces.
Overall, I agree with the article doesn't go anywhere. He likes some things that exist on Mac too, he doesn't like other things (command line) that are on Mac too. He doesn't seem to know enough about what he's talking about to give any interesting insights on his test.
