NY Times BEHIND the times, Again.: Typical NY times. If they couldn't make up some fake news in time, they'll write about something old and call it new.

Obviously, the "news" reporters were too stupord to notice epinions.com or store sites that have customer reviews for years already, like newegg, tigerdirect, circuitcity.
