Interesting, now I'm wondering what the long term implications are. Hopefully things don't change for the worse :/

Wow, I didn't see that one coming. I hope Bit-Tech will continue with the same spirit. I've been a regular visitor since the early days and find you're the only tech site that provides the blend of info I crave with the attention to details I expect.

I don't know anything about your new overlords but I guess their acquisitions of Bit-Tech proves they have good taste.

Long live Bit-Tech!

Good news. CustomPC is my favourite PC mag, so am looking forward to further integration with what those guys do. Hopefully it will mean more stories and more frequent updates!!

Could bit-tech become the next Ars-technica ? In some ways it already surpasses it.

Good thing, IMO. Custom PC and PC Pro have a long tradition of not just doing reviews, but also reporting cutting-edge news and writing detailed feature articles. Both have impressive credentials that Bit-Tech can only profit from.

Now where's my raise?
