Dudes!
I must say I have laughed very hard on all your comments and complaints about this topic. Let me explain what happened in the Netherlands on October 19th.
That was the day that the Dutch and Belgian people that often meet each other online at our forum had the chance to meet each other in real life. All other events on that day were just to spice it all up a little. And that worked! We got attention in national newspapers and radio, and about the worldwide attention on websites we can't complain either. Cool but not the most important, that was the fun to see and meet online friends!
* Old Dutch PC Throwing
Yes, there were 5 old PC's striped from any component used for this. There was no way that these machines could be used for any useful use. Yes, we know there are other OS'es that can run on those PC's besides Windows, but they didn't run Mac OS, so that was good enough for us.
We did even donated some working PC's to a hospital. So don't blame us for having some fun with old cases. Btw, IBM's cases were the strongest! And all mess was cleared.
The winner won a printer! Freely made available by a kind sponsor! And even with this price, it was all A JOKE!
* Ellen Feiss
What to say? It is A JOKE! People! It is A JOKE! Besides, Holland has to keep up its image on _legal_ stickies, right? ;-) Guy or girl, does it really matter?
* Sleazy.MacFreak.org
This initiative of Peter Villevoye was put up for entertainment purposes only... What else to say? It is A JOKE! People! It is A JOKE!
* MacFreak.org hosted on Linux
Yes, true. And we aren't ashamed of it. We are happy enough with our host that provides the space for free! Even better, soon they'll be moving us to a XServe machine!
* MacFreak Day
Just to let you know: next year we likely repeat this event. Join us next time! ;-) Quite some people that commented can use a good laugh, as I see it.... Life is not always serious!
