Well, I'm thrilled. This slapstick (or something) takeover is actually starting to make AI feel like it was before...

Yeah, but they've got to get a few things fixed.

"www.appleinsider.com" jumps you to MacNN. Only "appleinsider.com" get's you to the new, active homepage.

The "slaptech.com" URL now displays a page that says "this account has been suspended"

I suppose they'll work it out eventually.

It's the other way around for me. <a href="http://www.appleinsider.com" target="_blank">www.appleinsider.com</a> takes me to the new homepage, while appleinsider.com takes me to MacNN.

How old is Slaptech? Why would their account be suspended? Answer: please contact our billing department. How long before their practices at the former host lead them to be suspended here aswell? Probably not too long considering this bit of text from the main page: "(and handle the traffic for a reasonable price)." My bolding.

Hmmm... a fledgeling group with a history of bill paying problems.

In case we never meet again in cyberspace, I'll bid you all a fond farewell now, as I suspect an abrupt end to the festivities (wherein I won't get the chance later.)
