As picked up by the news bot:

Who’s viewing PCPro.co.uk on an Amiga?

http://www.pcpro.co.uk/blogs/2009/10/28/whos-viewing-pcpro-co-uk-on-an-amiga/


This article looks typical of Daily Mail journalism. Perhaps due to the lack of Amiga's firewall its one of the few OSs not blocking the ads and other crap that stem from the website, thus gets recorded.

You could just as well write a similar article based on Google statistics of Amiga Browser visitors and equate that into "1000s still use an Amiga OS based browser in 2009" and so forth...

Morons.

"Firewalls blocking the HTTP user agent strings??!!"

Ooooh, my bad for contextually misleading use of terminology.

That's what I get for trying to cook a sausage casserole and read forums at the same time.

Also my bad for wearing my Windows NT cap and spouting misconstrued information in an Amiga environment.

I best go sit facing the corner of the lounge wearing my dunce cap instead, eating sausage casserole and think long and hard about prioritisation in future and accept my inability to multitask effectivity without errors of submissions. heh.

"I take it you won't be contacting the guy then"

No.

Looks like there are enough comments educating the author of the article. So no need to reply even if you wanted. Plus, ART had to post a wisecrack too... Nyuck.


It's ok mate, there were enough people on patrol; phew!! Nevermind you'll just have to be a bit quicker next time.
