$1500 isnt too bad; wonder what procooling would go for on the open market?

It seems to me, that as far as selling a company goes, that's not too good.

I was a member at icrontic forums. Interesting they say they got hacked. This very same thing happened to them a few years ago. They claimed it was a hardware failure though and they lost it all then to. One would think they would make a backup or two everyday after that happening. :shrug: Not to hard to click the back up data base button. Or maybe that is just an option from my host.

I remember last time it happened too - back when they were one of the crappiest sites around and they realized everyone hated them, so they claimed a hardware failure as an excuse to change names and leave their past behind. People forgot for a while, and I even saw them get linked from a few respectable sites again, and then they returned again to crappyness. And now, after not hearing anything from them, or seeing a link to them in many many months, they are claiming they were hacked and trying to make a last buck from the public. I wouldn't pay $5.00 for that domain name, let alone $1500.

As for procooling, it would fetch well over $1000000 I would guess, but then again I have no idea how much traffic it does so I could be way off. Back when I ran the server for www.glideunderground.com (way back when the site was updated more than once a week and stuff was good - around the time when apushardware name-changed to icrontic actually) and before the big internet advertizing crash, we had an offer for $1Mil for GU - that was when advertizing was easy to get and sites always paid for themselves though, and was with around 10K page-views a day. Advertizing isn't worth crap now, but I'm betting procooling does a damn lot more traffic than 10K pages a day.

Actually procooling's traffic is about 95% me and Joe refreshing the site in the off chance someone will post some boobies in the forums to look at. 5 hits a day or so.
