I guess I had this laptop longer than I thought

[kranky]

Pulled an old Compaq laptop out of the desk to clean up the files so I can give it to someone else, since it finally dawned on me I shouldn't keep it for no good reason.

It has IE 4.0, and in the address bar drop-down list is this entry: anandforums.gisystech.com

It's likely no one is going to want this laptop - it's much older than I thought!

Many of us joined on 10/9/99 because it was the first day they used the FuseTalk software, and everyone had to re-register.

Many of us remember having to re-register every time the damned board crashed.

Wow...that must have been annoying. Geez...1999, I was like...12-13 then. I think the only thing I used the internet for was to look up cheat codes for nintendo games.
