NetworkWorld Accountant: Ad revenue seems to be off this week. Quick, somebody submit a story to Slashdot! (Before Computerworld does the same thing!)

Right, because vinyl came out at approximately the same time as the CD, just like VHS and Beta.
That claim actually comes straight from the Square Kilometer Array website.
Yeah, I have. What was the competing format?
