    Sigh...this story has already been posted...you know, I don't expect much from the people who work here, and not much is exactly what I get.

    The article mentions that as of August 2, there was no site for armani.com. That is because Mr. Mani only wanted to have an easy-to-remember email address, which he has had since the late '80's. He has never made a website with that domain name because he doesn't want a bunch of traffic meant for the "real" armani website.
