Damage Control (w nau) Today

One more reason

It's clear to me that this forum was placed here for the sake of damage control.

You're forgetting one thing. If InfoWorld Electric gets paid every time a page gets loaded with a banner ad, think of the revenues this forum's generating. Right now there are something like 300 posts in here after just a few days. Compare that to the "Processor Wars" forum, which has been around for a week longer, yet has less than half the number of posts, or Bob Lewis's "Keeping employees happy" forum, which has, after the same length of time, accumulated a total of 3 (yes, you read that right, three) posts. In fairness to Bob, his forum hasn't received prominent placement on "Page One."

I'm beginning to think that a secondary goal of this whole Readers' Choice fiasco is to rile up the OS/2 crowd and take advantage of them for the ad dollars this creates in these forums.

I can hear them now: "Another OS/2 zealot conspiracy theory."
