    Well that's a bit petty, considering how much we reference and link to them.

    I like Hexus. I also like Bit-Tech to be fair. And Anand. The underline links do annoy the cr@p outta me but it says a lot cause I still always read your articles. Most other sites with rubbish like that and I just don't bother

    We try to balance them, but don't get me wrong - we do make mistakes, but unlike others we are happy to have the feedback and work with it
