Anandtech was purchased by Purch.. the same group that owns Toms Hardware. Wonder if it will change or become more mobile while Tom's focuses more on pc side.

    So.... it's going to turn into crap? Toms used to be pretty good but now its filled with ads and news is always late.

    Bingo !
     
    It was only a matter of time after Anand left for Apple anyway.

    Well, I'm not optimistic. It can only stay the same at best or go downhill from here. 
     
    I'm expecting Purch will begin cross-posting articles and news between sites first.... 


    Have water, will cool.

    I predict the site will go downhill. They will start writing fluff articles for the right price and the site will be full of ads.

    I don't understand all the hate about the ads. It's a free to use sight. They have to pay their employee's somehow.
