Hmmm does that mean they're going to get "respectable" and toe a corporate
line now?:-) After all it was founded on the same irreverent approach as
The Register which still claims to "bite the hand....". I'll miss the jabs
and snide innuendos if so.

Mike Magee, McGee, something like that... anyhoo, Mike founded The
Register, sold it and founded the Inquirer, and has now sold that. I
like both sites, wish Mike well, and hope he's pocketed a coupla pence
for his efforts. What will his third try be called? ;-)

I wonder if Magee is still there? There was no announcement about him
leaving.

Mike's still there.
