OK, so maybe I read slashdot too much, but they've got an article linking to a review of the VK204-25
here

I am pleased that the review got alot of coverage. Our affiliate network hardocp/modthebox/virtual-hideout/bluesnews/tweak3d/overclockers.au etc. all picked the article up as we expected they would. The Slashdot coverage was a real bonus. We have been fortunate in that they have picked up 5 of our articles over the last 4 months. Slashdot normally has a residual effect for a period of 3-4days while adding an additional +/- 150,00 page views.
I assume that MO got some good exposure also as the article linked to your site.
Glad it worked out for everyone.
Cheers!

Getting /. is always a bonus... and a dread for some sites... I remember bit-tech.net going down from it

The first time one of our features was picked up on Slashdot was back in August. Our site could not handle the initial onslaught. We were down for almost 24 hours. We have since beefed up by acquiring additional bandwidth, but I still hold my breath when they link to us.
Cheers!
