AnandTech.com Sucks!!!

I was looking for motherboard info on their site. When I was trying to sign up to post some questions, they would not allow Yahoo email accounts. I wrote them asking how to get access and this in the reply I got:

You can sign up using a real e-mail address.

Just sign up for a hotmail account. As long as you always remember to register for things by saying that they CANNOT share your info with third-party businesses, you won't get spammed. I understand it's the evil MSN empire, but since I don't click banners, or use their site for anything but email, I think all I'm doing for them is using resources. Spam is not a problem for me, and I don't have the Inbox Protector on, so it's all good.

Try www.netscape.net for free email.

No discussion board I've ever used has refused a netscape email address.
