I didn't up or down vote you, but meta-edits about downvotes seem to either get downvoted to oblivion because of perceived whining or upvoted a lot out of a perceived injustice to the downvote. Also I think your comment is rather condescending. "You think Windows sucks? How about you build something better?"
Only added after I watched it go up and down twice. So it's not just the meta-whining, apparently several people found it highly offensive on content alone, and I was mystified as to why.
Thanks for the outside input regarding the Windows comparison, I don't think that's quite the same as this, though. The people talking down Watson aren't saying it sucks as much as they're saying it's trivial. Vista sucked but nobody would have called it trivial or inconsequential.
