-rc3 comes with the patch to enable hdmi audio on dce5/northern islands, that's at least one more shameless link to a barely related story.

Hiding trap-links behind convoluted sentence structures is annoying to those trying to find the news, and only a minor convenience for those who don't know the backstory. But then it's not just the related backstory, but often any halfway related article that can be fit in with a crowbar, so it doesn't appear to be for the benefit of the reader. Just an attempt to increase the google rank?
I'd prefer restructuring news into three distinct stages:
* The actual news
* Sources (i.e. links to the original posts)
* Related Articles
That's easier to read and navigate and looks more professional, while diminishing neither google rank nor the ability for non-regulars to inform themselves about background stories.
