I just found this when you click log off on windows it dims the forums. Just thought that was kinda neat.

Boy, tough crowd. No need to be slinging insults gentlemen. Not everyone is l337 and a sense of wonder should not be discouraged.

Do you actually realise how rude that could sound? This category is labeled "ANYTHING GOES" meaning that people can post ANYTHING they feel the need to... which is exactly what he has done. He obviously thought that this might be of interest to other people who use these forums. So instead of replying with such a negative response, why not show a little respect?

benjamindaines, you never used XP before? because it always does that when shutting down or logging off...

@PowerBookG4:
It is XP actually, and only WinXP does that, no other Windows version

@ those rude guys:
That's pretty much kiddy behaviour...plain stupid, and just simply putting a bad image on us other Mac users...

Actually I think everyone's missing the point here:

He means it also happens when you only log your MAC-FORUMS.COM ACCOUNT IN INTERNET EXPLORER- not when you log out of Windows XP entirely.

I'm sure lots of people haven't seen that particular internet explorer behaviour before and it is certainly not something that happens on Macs.

Cool find!

i think he meant. "This is what happens when you log off of the mac-forums website from a Windows machine in IE."
