MacNN Lounge

Is it just me or has the Lounge totally gone downhill. Nothing good is posted there anymore. It's all stupid stuff like "does mountain dew kill your sperm" or "will 60s (or 80s) music ever make a comeback" or "will 90s music ever go away". Every day I realize more and more how much better AI is.

    I never liked MacNN more than AI, but at one point I did like them. Now the people that post there are just stupid and annoying. Also, there's too many different catagories. I like AI's 9 much better than all the ones MacNN has.

    That's true. That's one of the reasons why most of my posting has stopped.

    Dont worry Jonathan, we love ya! I think that the relaxed atmosphere is what keep people here. Unfortunately when there is a drought of rumors, thing tend to slow down aroung here.

    Oh, well... I don't drink Dew. I find it repulsive.

    If I drank it on a regular basis I guess I would, but I don't so I don't care.

    It all started <a href="http://maccentral.macworld.com/news/0202/11.applehardware.php"; target="_blank">February 11th @ 8:15am</a>:



    [quote]"We're not planning to introduce any new CPUs at Macworld Tokyo, as a matter of fact, we're set for some months now," said Joswiak.<hr></blockquote>



    I have a feeling after MacWorld Tokyo passes, it'll all ramp up again around here. We won't have to talk about gays and religion any more. Once again we can return to baseless rumors of the G5! Mwuah ha ha ha! <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />

    No, you can have a different name shown than your login name. Yours would remain "_alliance_" to log in with, but we'd see something else.
