My first exposure to Anderson's stuff was his Star Wars work, and it was utter shit. His original stuff isn't bad, but I think he really shines as an editor. I've got a handful of anthologies where he's credited as such, and the stories are very tight and nicely in line with each other.
He's also one of the most effective names in the electronic anti-piracy drive, and for those efforts, I'm willing to overlook some of his sins.
