Assesing tech articles 4/2/09 pg 776

This article is not an atuthoritative source beacuse it is only people responding to eachother about what eachother previously said. This is not a general aritcle because many people believe many several things. Berry just gets told why what he is doing is wrong and it does not make it a credible source to believe that either side is right. Opinions are the only things that are being thrown at eachother and because Berry is just a farmer it makes it less authoritative.

  1. How can you be sure that the responders are not people who have backrounds in technology and how efficient the computer can be? You could do some reasearch on the responders and on Berry himself to better support your claim. Where was Berry's article published? What kind of magazine? Is the magazine a reliable source? These are all some things you can look into that may provide you with more evidence to proving if the artilce is authoritative or not.
