On behalf of myself, Steve, Marcel, Daniel and the entire Neowin team, Merry Christmas!

And a toast to the entire Neowin.net community! You are the guys (and gals) that, when someone absolutely positively needs help with a technology question, has problems with their PC, or just wants to know what laptop they should buy, people turn to!

So this week, when you are visiting family and friends and getting peppered with questions ranging from "Is Windows Vista a good upgrade?" to "Should I get Blu-Ray or HD DVD" to the inevitable "Do you think you could come over after the holidays to take a look at my 6 year old Windows ME PC? It seems to be running Greeting Spam Card Maker slower after we installed this screen saver that came with an email..." just know that we'll be thinking of you!

Merry Christmas!

you got that right! it's.... "Merry "CHRIST"mas" ... screw that "politically correct" BS, "Happy Holidays" crap.

/rant on.
cause this is "America" (for those who live in USA) it's been a tradition to say merry christmas for so long (probably 50-100+years) (plus not to mention it seems like alot of people dont even know the real meaning of "christ"mas), now you got all these pr*cks trying to screw everything up!.. for a small group of people in this country who dont get into christmas etc... i say the heck with that. let them do there thing, but DONT change america's ways!
/rant off. lol

but anyways on a more positive note ... everyone have a great christmas.

Well, to be fair, Christmas is mostly a commercial holiday at this point... I mean, I'm atheist/agnostic/something, and I celebrate it. It's my favorite holiday.

Merry Christmas, none the less

Merry Chrismas To One and All.

Now... , it's been a fairly hectic year at times, and, lots of stuff has happened and just flown right past me without really registering fully. YET, Neowin has always been a site I've looked to for inspiration and to keep abreast of developments in this particular sphere. The journalism is (of course ) better then many other similar efforts and- for that- I would like to thank those involved.

So anyway, if you would all have a merry christmaas, it would make me very happy Honest!

Keep it up, hey? lol!
