Good people, As a tech journalist myself at NMG, I must say I read the piece with shock. I am not sure if it was a mistake in sub-editing because the piece's writer Mark Okuttah knows his tech quite well. All the same, despite the similarities in the name, it is unacceptable to make a mistake like that. It is just a major faux pas. At least the online version has been cleared of all the confusions but the print version is immortalized for all history; mistakes and all. I must however take great exception to Peter's derogatory statement about tech writers at NMG because they are arguably some of the best in the business, and some are even on this list.
