bluebsh Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Is anyone else getting annoyed by the register? I don't even know how this place can call themselfs a credible news site for IT information... it seems like littearly every story on there is false or twisted in every other direction, and the only thing that does get good press is AMD or Linux, if it's not them it's complete made up BS they get from their 'credible sources' that is proven incorrect a few months later when the truth comes out... I wish we'd stop posting news.. ahem sorry BS from the register on here... it's just makeing neowin look as bad for continueing this crappy news sites stories farther...

The Register is way cool. Almost as cool as The Inquirer. "Integrity? Yea, we've heard of it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japlabot Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 They are ok by me because in the end it's up to you to believe what you want to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, if it's any comfort, I hear you completely. They're kind of like an online supermarket tabloid. Not only do they post BS rumours plucked from their very own imaginations but often technical specs/information they quote is completely nonsense. I would love to not see anymore news from them posted here, but it's not really our place. Just learn to not take their nonsense too seriously and you'll find them a source for a good chuckle every now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
