Congrats to our webmaster
Calum:
well i don't understand why they couldn't just call it freemypc.org or one of the non-sweary ones if that's their problem, maybe the site needs to be ihatemicrosoft.com to get as much publicity as ihateapple.com

Hey, this is not good:
Entertainment Value: 4
Others on that complaint list got 5. Write more entertaining posts guys! :D
CommonSense:
Update: That Wired article was a bit too visible, I guess.
I used to have a link to "the parent company" at the bottom of every page of this site (oops, that reminds me -- I still have it on the forums!). "The parent company" is me, doing on-site Macintosh consulting.
Well, Apple noticed, and the head of the Apple Consultants Network, of which I'm a member, dropped me a line saying they really don't want to be associated with something like this, blah blah blah. Now, because I need things from the ACN program, they had me in quite a spot.
So I had no choice but to comply, because I really need those referrals from the Apple stores. Right now, that's the only income I've got.
For entertainment, click on "Support" in the top nav bar, and scroll down to the "Hire Us" section. You'll notice I had to, uhhh, revise that one also. :(

Wow, that sucks! I can't believe they would threaten you with something like that. Might you be able to talk them into changing that at a later date? Or changing the name of the site :eek:
I think you should stick with Microsoft Eradication Society, internally known as FuckMicrosoft ;)
