  This site generates fake Slashdot headlines.  One good example was:

  Gameboy Beowolf Cluster
  Posted by brian on Tue June 19, 05:08 PM
  from the have fun hitting reload page dept.
  An anonymous reader wrote in to say that “Cisco will begin seling thier own GameBoy Beowulf clustters.  They’re going to be working with KDE so you can expect a stupid name.”  I don’t see any practical application for these, but I’ll probably get one anyway.

  or…

  from the have fun hitting reload page dept.
  bl(e)es writes, “It’s been a long time coming but finally Handspring has released MySQL for teh CueCat.  I fro one have been waiting 3 yaers for this.  Im having trouble keeping teh drool of my keyboard.”  UPDATE: Apparently this is just a Beta release, so clean up that drool.

  I am a regular slashdot reader, but I think I missed the point of your post.  Is it a parody site?
