Do you like Maniac 2000?

The dance hit turns 25 this year.

THE SIX NATIONS kicks off this weekend, with Ireland set to take on England on Saturday.

To help get the crowd hyped, the IRFU have announced that DJ Mark McCabe will perform at Ireland’s opening match.

The legendary DJ is best known for his hit ‘Maniac 2000‘, which was released at the turn of millenium and sat at number one on the Irish singles charts for ten weeks.

It became the best-selling single in Ireland that year, and became a regular feature of nightclubs, weddings and school discos across the country.

So today we’re asking: Do you like Maniac 2000?

    Kind of entertaining this. People JUMPED on the shellshock bug that affected linux, probably because it also affected Apple.

    It seemed like some used it as a way to bemoan open source software etc, claiming the “many eyes” position of kernel development wasn’t to be trusted. Yet here we are.

    I’m having no problems on CP/M. Software is limited but we have never heard of a virus.
