It's weird because he uses GB correctly when talking about system memory but uses it incorrectly every time he refers to storage space.
He also did a good job at the start of the article of acknowledging that Ubuntu gives a good desktop experience yet then goes on to rant about how bad Linux is in general after using one other, unrelated, distro.
The whole article reads incredibly ignorantly which I wouldn't have expected given his credentials. I can only assume he approached the exercise with an axe to grind so continued his tasks in a unintentionally negative way. In my experience, if someone is impatient when using unfamiliar platforms and/or wants to find problems with it, then they will find a way to expose problems regardless of the platform.
