It was bad last night. I was wondering why the forums seemed so "dead". It was because I wasn't getting any e-mails through mac dot-com for a few hours. When it did finally start to work, I got like 15 e-mails (Mac Forums Mailers) at once.
That's the first time that I've had a problem w/mac.com. They do have their beta webmail out though, so maybe that was causing some problems?
