[edit] Laptopical

• Delete, the USA Today reference is trivial and we can't make an article out of it. The "Cool site of the day" award is handed out 365 times a year, so it's not exactly exclusive. Demiurge 12:04, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

• Keep In my opinion the argument for deletion is spurious, this site is listed in the print edition of Dan Gookin's Laptops for Dummies. Also a cool site of the day award that has only been handed out a few thousand times with hundreds of millions of sites on the web - not exactly exclusive? The site has also been featured by T.H.E. Journal and by the Guardian newspaper in the uk, a popular broadsheet read by millions daily which I'm familiar with. And by all accounts it's also been listed by the USA today editorial team. Any doubts as to the quality of Laptopical's content should reference this article about Apple pioneer Jef Raskin This article needs expansion, not deletion. - Linuxaurus 16:05, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

• Two voters above have very few contributions. Wehe has been reborn on 16 November 2006 with first contribution after a months then followed by two contributions (one of them this one). User Linuxaurus was born on 29 November and voted in various Deletion debates only. I suspect Linuxaurus for being sockpuppet or single purpose account, I do not believe these two votes are in good faith. Tulkolahten 10:53, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
