I was going to MacNN.com when I accidentally(sp?) entered maccn -- and it brought up Apple's website -- but it didn't redirect.

So, my question is, what is www.Maccn.com?

And why does it bring up Apple's site, without redirecting it to www.apple.com?

Any thoughts?

Before I posted this, I did a search to see if anyone had mentioned this before, and I found no results. So please don't flame me if it has been covered before.

Take Care,
Quark:cool:

That's very strange...the only things I could imagine it being are a fake Apple imitation site that some hacker tried to put together, or the result of a screw-up at Apple...
