I have to agree with you Prof.
I saw a number of sites dip severely in PR with the www….funny think all the link exchanges I have been doing the past few months I have been including the www so it should have had a boost….but alas it has hurt PR and most sites have the same PR without the www as when i started an agressive push of exchanges.
Hopefully with the next deep crawl these sites see I will see an improvement…could be my outgoing links were counted and there still isn’t much in the way of incoming links from high pr sites.
