And it's not only the OT. The Gaming Board frequently has threads regarding PC builds and components. The Movie/TV board will often have threads relating to HDTVs, Roku players, Apple TVs, and so forth.

So you're stating here that you don't actually read the threads.

On the gaming board, the PC builds and components are for GAMING PCs. They wouldn't leave that board even if there was a Tech board

On the M/TV board, those Tech topics all have to do with M/TV. Apple TVs, Rokus, etc threads have a perfect fitting in the M/TV board since the main focus of those devices is MOVIES AND TV SHOWS.

Tech topics are fine in the OT. I see no problem with it.

EDIT: pr0n board first

There are plenty of computer threads on the Gaming Board that do not necessarily pertain to gaming. For example, this one.

The same can be said for the Movie/TV board. Here's an example.

Here's another.

So were music threads. And outdoor threads. The OT hasn't truly been "off topic" since 2003. A more apt appellation for the board should be the "random post" board. As previously mentioned, major categorical subjects need dedicated forums for discussion - technology, religion/philosophy, and health/fitness.

While I endorse all three, I feel that a tech board would be the next logical choice.
