Do we want a Tech section?

i think we do.
it might not be used very often but i am sure it would be useful when needed.

Tatiana, do you mean tech as in technical support for this forum, or as in chatting about appliances and gadgets and gizmos?
Mr. Jellyfish (-instead a saluting smilie here-)
I mean somewhere to chat about appliances and gadgets, anything electronic.
Certainly somewhere for everyone to talk about their computer issuses in particular.
Moony looks like she would benefit from posting 'the difficulty' she is having, and some one would be able to answer her.
Moony lives in a very isolated district, and this would be a great way for her to gain control over her computer...by learning how to maintain it and use it.
Being able to post a PC problem and be able to get some kind of answer within a few hours would be sooooo good for Moony, and anyone else, as needed.
it would be fun, in a serious kind of way.
I like computers, both as a communication tool and as machines i pay to have built.
I think a thread/section/whatever you call it would be good because then people can ask and learn.....
Perhaps call it Technics

I like Technics. My hi-fi/stereo (choose your descriptiontatiana wrote:Perhaps call it Technics
) system is Technics. Bought long before the millennium change, but still a goody!

There's way too many sections in my opinion.

Which ones would you get rid of? And why, if you like.Captain Hi-Top wrote:There's way too many sections in my opinion.

The Beatles section is a relic of original ATU which was founded by a Beatles fan. A Beatles fan who was none too friendly towards the membership when things went haywire. I would tend to agree with pinz. I like the Beatles. And I like the Stones. And all manner of rock 'n' roll. No other artist in r 'n' r has their own section. (Zimmy is a different proposition - just... 
)
EDIT: pinz has edited his post while I was posting. Where's Nash with her editing ban when you need her?

I think it's as well to keep it segregated from the real topics!pinhedz wrote: I would also have thought sports were off-topic, but that area already has 31 threads. Evidently lots of people go for that foolishness.

Fair enough on the re-arranging of the threads and sections.
Now, what is a pop-tart?

No moaning at all . It is entirely your decision.Stranded Jellyfish wrote:The interesting effect of starting a pop-tart section would be that we could have endless discussions to determine who belongs in it. Could be fun.
Getting rid of the sports section could have the nice side effect of having oldgitostrich mope and moan. OK, that clinches it. I'll get rid of the sports section. After removing that and the Beatles section, and with the recent addition of the gadgets section, there should be exactly as many sections as on ATU MkI.
