Perhaps that should be my new recruitment line...

"Microsoft supports this site... so should you..."

Well, the Microsoft Monopoly is wide spread and it is hard not to buy or advertise a product which is produced by them. This is why people love Macs so much, they are rebeling against a monopoly which has tried to squash all other competitors out of competition.

well, if microsoft was really supporting the site, I'd imagine you wouldn't really need any of us Demi-Gods ;)

You sending them a case of MacRumors mugs? Maybe it might be a fun thing to do with the old ones (2002) when you get the new ones done for 2003?

Mugs are made on-demand (by cafepress)... so no extra ones sitting around.

I guess that it's good that M$ is giving advertising cash to MacRumors. Their paying to keep the site open for all of us. Besides, I rather have them spend it here than on one of those lame-o Apple-to-PC switchers ripoff ads.

Or spending it on developing their monopoly...I mean software.
