I agree, PH.
It doesn't really bother me when websites use banner ads or even those adds where they are in the middle of the article and the words "wrap around" it. I don't even mind the flash ads as long as they are tastefull and load fast. I understand that hosting a site is not cheap and since the content I am getting is free I can understand why they need to use those types of adds.
However, the kind of crappy ass adds that anandtech is using where the actual words in the article are advertisers links really annoys me. It distracts and takes away from the article. So yea, thats all I have to say about that. As you can tell, I feel pretty strongly about the matter.
Also popups are a bitch. Use Opera, the greatest browser on the planet, and you will never have to worry about them.

Delirious, I really like your avatar. I was listening to Jessica by TMBG while scrolling through the thread, and came to your post just as the song started. It was really cool how the song and your avatar seemed to sync up. Had to stop and look at it for a couple minutes until the song ended. Was really cool.
