    Congrats Tim and Jim!

    But they didn't mention the kickass tech forums :(


    I'm actually surprized to see they recommended download.com, you can get spyware/adware there if your not careful...

    Yeah, I want my props, Anyway, that's sweet. I also saw a link at hardocp today too. Word's out.

    As for the downloading spyware/adware at download.com:
    I think that download.com handles it well, they put a blue box on the download page that says the download comes with spyware/adware and that it may track your internet usage blah blah blah.
    Only thing it's missing is a big skull and crossbones and a warning that says "CoolWebSearch will destroy your internet connection"

    well, I guess they're just charming. I've always respected their opinion over there, seems like a stand up pair of guys.

    heh, that's what I've always liked about the [H], no bs, just tell it like it is - and less lengthy than AnandTech's ;)

    anyway, congrats on the plug, even though MG should be #1 of the list, download.com isn't all that great imo.

    Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I know for me this site is No 1

    I learn so much from the help forums, and the general forums are fun to read and get to know a little bit about everyone's personalities.

    Keep up the good work.

    Congrats. Frankly, I trust MG's estimation of PCToday more than PCToday's estimation of MG. So who's the authority in this whole matter? ;)
    Re the admin. - I don't mind a 'benevolent dictator'. A civil and well-run site has plenty of appeal. Everyone's seen their share of punks, jackasses and flamers around the 'net but those types are notoriously absent from MG.
    This site deserves it's success. Keep up the great work.

    "HUMOR"

    I love this part of the article...

    The MajorGeeks.com shareware Web site offers a bit of humor with its download service. ...

    I can say that I don't think I had ever gone to download.com before coming here.... :cool:

    NOTHING beats a FREE "write-up" and a "recommendation". Yee-hah, I hope you reap the benefits.

    No doubt about it.

    I would trust this site's advice more than I would ANY other resource, on the web or off of it. For me, the advice in the tech forums here is like gospel.
    :cool:

    Re: New One! Woooohooooo!

    Would it be wise to have the page that pops up when "visitors" come looking for a download - the home page I figure -- to proclaim this info...
    MG featured in two popular PC magazines, etc....

    Just my opinion (maybe I missed it posted elsewhere) but I never looked "down here" when I first came for help up in the software section.
