Not to disrespect Retroblast in anyway... but I liked the idea of having all types of reviews in this forum section. 

The Retroblast reviews are always top notch - there's no doubting that- but to hear from other users was interesting as well.

I am afraid with the forum section entitled "RetroBlast Reviews" that others will shy away from posting their experiences.

>others will shy away from posting their experiences.

I have a piece of hardware I bought and would like to "review" for everyone here but now that this is the exlcusive RetroBlast forum, should I post my review in the Main Forum?

If I am supposed to post here, than in my opinion this board is missnamed. It should just be called "Hardware Reviews" like it used to be if any and all review posts are to go here.

Please clarify: should I post my mini-review here or elsewhere?

Eric.

Something tells me things might return to normal here in a day or so  ;D  (it's a joke, please do post all hardware reviews here).
