Macrumors and Arn are famous!

[mcrain]

Did anyone catch the screensavers last night? They had Megan get on to talk about the impending MWNY. She did a segment on the rumors leading up to the keynote, and she started her segment off with Arn from Macrumors.com has a really good summary of all the rumors, and then she went through them one by one.

Dude, ARN's famous!!!

Whoohoo!

Excuse my stupidity, but what is screensavers?

That's the link the the "show notes." They don't have any of Megan's commentary, or attribute anything to you (Arn).

I was watching and thought wow, Megan could be surfing on here right now! I wonder if she ran across Cleo or Macette? I'm sure Megan has her own groupies (can you say Xena, warrior princess syndrome?)

A show on TechTV. It airs throughout the day and covers a lot of different tech topics (mostly though it's all about a bunch of Wintel geeks trying to set up something Apple has been doing for years. :D)



mcrain beat me to it. :)

Oh the geek blasphemy!

Screensavers is an hour and a half long show on TechTV. It's like a religious experience for many geeks, and closet geeks like myself.

ok, so where do i find techTV - I don't even know if I get it...or is it online?

hey, don't give me a hard time for being ignorant - i don't watch much tv as it is.

It's part of cable/satellite TV. I personally don't have it (I just watch it at a friends house every now and again.)

Don't worry about mcrain, he's just touchy about geek stuff. j/k :D :D

Actually, for a long time I was perfectly happy with my Compaq celeron at 400Mhz. I didn't care what I had so long as it worked, but then I met Miss. TiBook, and whoa what a set of gazabas! I had to get my fingers on her.

Anyway, that got me here, and then once you get a little hooked on tech news, you start looking for more. That's how I came across techtv. Lots of stuff there, including news on upcoming tech gadgets.

he he he....I'm so television illiterate...

but still...very cool to have some sort of recognition...but I agree...it's not good to have his name attached to the rumormill...

[Mr. Anderson]

I don't think it matters one way or another - its free recognition/advertising for the site. My guess is someone on the show is a regular here - so who ever it is, come out and show yourself!

Be glad you can watch TechTV. I sure as hell can't. $50/month for cable and still no techTV

Do you mean to say that you've finally gone out and bought yourself a sexy partner? ;)
