I prefer somewhere with a slightly higher average IQ. Slightly.
Plus, AT has better looking websites, and there's no godawful music playing every single time I load a page.

Yeah, I first came to Anandtech because it was recommended to me by a friend. I used to keep up with all that tech stuff. Now I don't, and I only visit OT, hot deals, and FS/FT.

DailyTech - yes, multiple times daily
AnandTech - seldom, monitor reviews interest me but not much else
AT forums - couple hours a day

I read pretty much all of the reviews on AT.
Been reading them since like 98ish ...

A fortnight = two weeks

Actually the forum is starting to bore me. P&N is like "hate radio" with the same old bs from both sides. Hot Deals have not been hot since Christmas. And Off Topic is getting dumber and dumber. Even fool PAB is no longer amusing.

What are your words of insult to mean from Off Topic?

I used to read the Anandtech main page quite a bit, but it seems to have slowed down. I really don't care about the Apple TV thing, and it seems that regular reviews come out once every three or four days. I'd like to see more system building guides and whatnot. I don't know. I guess I don't understand the reasoning behind DailyTech becoming its own site.

Very rarely, only when there's a big news article or I'm looking for a review.

I'll read reviews when putting together a new system, but that only happens every couple of years. If I'm bored I might check out other articles, but not that often.

I read AT, but not even as much as Daily Tech and the Forums, especially Off Topic.

i have the RSS feed and i do read and article if it sounds interesting. however, the stream of articles has slowed down so much. besides, the forums also have incredibly knowledgeable people.
