What purpose is the forum archive supposed to serve other than a less immediate pissing-off of the community if it disabled right away. I can't find a link to the archive forums on the Macfixit site so how is anyone other than former members supposed to find and make use of it anyway. With it's extreme slowness I can guess that it's just a matter of a short time before it disappears. I can't imagine what they've done to the old server to run like it's hosted through a 1200 baud modem.
