Hey, was anyone around when Anandtech got hacked? I read about that in some gaming news. Here's the news source: click!

This is what the Gamespy newsletter said:

Anandtech Gets Hacked - Prophet
----------------------------------
Daily tech destination Anandtech was defaced this morning, according to this report from The Register. The site was compromised earlier this morning by a hacking group calling themselves "the sm0ked Crew". The site featured the lyrics from an Eminem song about hacking, as well as some obligatory shout outs and swear words. The page has already been straightened out and is back on track, serving up its usual daily helpings of hardware news and product reviews.

Just curious about this.

No, it wasn't hacked. That was just a new site design that Anand was testing.
