Enough with all the Electronista headlines on MacNN

Honestly, it feels like the MacNN signal to noise ratio is getting extremely low. The front page now contains MORE electronista headlines than Mac headlines. Useless things to a Mac owner like "AT&T Stores to use Microsoft's touch screen computers." I came here for Mac/Apple news. Not AT&T news, not Dell news, no, not even Microsoft news. If I wanted electronic gadget news, I'd go to electronista.
Between that, and the over-the-top sensationalizing in the articles, and I find myself using MacNN less and less for my Mac news.

Oh, welcome to 2006. 
I stopped using MacNN for Mac news two years ago, I just found it not useful anymore. Seems like in the meantime, it has gotten worse.

Ok, to be honest- I also rarely use MacNN for news any more. Someone had posted a thread about legacy.macnn.com, which I checked out, and the nostalgia of back when MacNN used to be useful as a mac news source came flooding back. I took a look back at the current site, and was reminded of how bad it is now.

I never used MacNN for news, only forums. I much rather visit one of the rumor sites for news and analysis. At least they're dedicated.

I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.
