that balmer is going to start up another tech tv channel down here in the states

because he did not like what g4 did to the other one him and paul allen started.

is that true,

i know lockergnome has moved to seattle washington,
and that
kevin rose has left the g4 channel and has been talking with the old tech tv hosts?

is there any truth to the rumor that all the old hosts are going to be back on the new channel ?

:o B) :unsure: :stir the pot:

I don't know, but if Kevin Rose winds up on the new network I'll know to be wary.

Why? Kevin seemed nice enough when I was watching him. However, I stopped watching before he became host, so you’ve probably seen more of him.

Anyway, I hope the rumour is true, although I doubt I would watch much of the channel if I get it. I remember religiously watching The Screensavers, Call for Help, and (later on) Fresh Gear. I started watching less and less though because they became boring. :) Oh, and because Megan Morone left! :cry:

G4 is a terrible, terrible channel. I can see why the TechTV people would be upset. There’s nothing “tech” about it anymore. It’s just games.

There is a LONG history between Kevin Rose and myself and Lineman (who you probably don't know).

To summarize, Kevin is part of the problem. I won't bother going into it much.
