April Fools' joke sucessful ;)

Written by admin, on 03-04-2007

I have to admit that I was pretty horrified when I read that one.
Selling out to Sony? How could that not be a joke? but then again, you never know nowadays :)

Yeah that really was uncalled for. But then the next day I noticed all the posts were gone, so I was wondering...
Also didn't even notice they were posted on April 1st...

Anyhow, keep up the good work! :)
