    Its good news in the short term, because obviously they have an instant revenue pot, but long term, I can really see it causing problems.

    it's funny- i was trawling through trusted-reviews the other day (as el reg used them alot for a while)
    but they have some notably large gaps in their reviews - where they've obviously not been supplied the freebies to test, and have not actually explicitly said so in their reviews of comparable products.

    Its true, a tech site is worth very little till it sells. It just depends what your price is.
