 Crazy idea
This is a silly idea I had a few days ago, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.  What if we were to have a splash page linking to the forums and then also to a section which gave 'switching' info and then the option to post questions in the board? I know loads of other sites have stuff like this, but they don't always have big communities, and here is my real idea: What if we had a big batch of badges made which say "MacOSX.com" and our members were to wear them around? That would be good advertising Anyway, I said it was a dumb idea..

I think it's a good idea. But how many people would actually use/like it is what's in question here. Besides: the idea has already been discussed plenty in the past.

Dlloyd, Scott can barely afford to keep the site afloat, much less produce and distribute badges that may or may not sell. (BTW, badges as in pin-ons?) It's a nice idea, but I don't think it's feasible at this point.

I did say it was stupid. But that's how advertising works, you have an initial investment and then (hopefully) a return that exceeds what you gave. Yes, pin-ons.

A Switcher thread would be a good forum as some have discussed a Windows forum here as well. Now getting it on a windows forum page might be more difficult.

A switcher thread would be a good forum... as in a thread dedicated to switchers, or a whole forum, like the Panther section? Could be, switchers could ask questions there... I could be a mod for it...
