First off, I think this is a great site. I've only used it a few times but it is really cool to have as an online support system. I do have one problem, though. Many (if not most) of my questions have to do with Apple hardware. While you do have a hardware forum, it doesn't seem to get used much. Other online bbs' (such as macnn and macaddict) have hardware forums that are more precisely dedicated to the individual's needs.
In example, they have a Hardware catagory, and then seperate forums for Power Macs/Cubes, iMacs, Power/Ti Books and then iBooks. Then they have another one for other stuff like printers, iPods, Airport, etc.
I personally think this would much better. In fact, when I have a specific question about my TiBook, I goto MacAddict because I know that other TiBook owners will browse that forum and there is a better chance of my question being answered by someone who knows. And possibly, make the moderator be an owner of the product for which he moderates. Ie, the moderator for the iMac forum would have to own an iMac him/herself.
That's just my opinion, but I think it would really strengthen the bond of Apple users here if they had a place where they could not only talk with other Apple users, but other users of the same Apple computer genre.
Hopefully I got my point across w/o being too wordy, but if this change were to happen here, I really wouldn't have much of a reason to visit any other Mac-forum on the web. Thanks for your time!
