[callieX]

I liked to read the tech articles on www.osopinion.com . It disappeared for awhile and came back late last fall. This AM it has disappeared again. Just wonder if any one know why.

Funny thing is that of all the articles on the site, the one referred to was the lamest. The rest of the stuff there was pretty interesting.
