    It seems that the Mac in the domain name is pretty much on the back burner. Almost every article is about iPhone or iPad. :eek:

    There is applerumors.com ...
    It's practically a redirect to macrumors, but it's something :)

    It wouldn't make much sense to change it because of the name recognition it garners. The brand has been around over a decade now and is very well known.

    Brand recognition, you don't want to change the name that everyone recognizes.

    Me thinks the thread author's sarcasm is lost upon those responding so far. :D
