So if someone kindly would at least pm me with whatever this news or story is all about? Thanks ...
I found this tip in some other message that I don't know where's at (kudos to whoever wrote it): To get subscriber links to automatically redirect to nonsubscriber links, add the following line to the "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts" file [no extension for the hosts] (assuming winxp/2k):
216.151.100.125 subscriber.anandtech.com
using a subscriber address will now go to the nonsubscriber server. It works well for me.
But yes, all subcriber links can be changed to nonsubscriber links by changing the subscriber in the URL to forums.
