Oh I know, I'm not saying I was an old timer, but I made a post that questioned the integrity of one and funny how it disappeared conveniently so that he didn't have to respond.

Don't get me wrong though, most of you guys kick ass. Much better than the neftastic asshats who join the forum now.

I was here from 1999 and had a previous account before the one I did now. A lot of things happened (trust me long story here involving two different countries and a bitch of an ex email account) and I never pursued the old account although I probably could now?

Anyway, I had to register again in 2005.

I'm old, but not 99 old. Damn impressive to have been neffing on forums back in those days.

How you doing Dave? :)

I super otay, Jean!

My quest to complete my "faster than the speed of light," "hamsters in series on meth" powered scooter has run into a couple of negligible technical snags, but my plans for world domination by 3pm, August 8th, 2017 was only pushed back by an hour or two, so . . . :awe:

Yay for the Abit BH6 board: easy 50% overclock of Celeron 300 MHz all the way -> 450 MHz.
Anand even made his first "how to" video, which took a while to download on a dialup internet connection.

I was here back before the day, but then life happened for a couple years. I ended up with an ABit BP6 and a couple of Celery 300A's because of you all...

I used to be a lurker before I finally signed up in 2001. I swear that I had a different user name like "Superbob" for awhile before I forgot my password and eventually switched to this user ID.

Oh, and I was rocking an epic 700MHz AMD Athlon Slot A processor with 256 MB of crappy Mushkin memory (Rated PC133, but would crash if took it above PC100), and an NVidia TNT2 Ultra card back then.

Before that, I had a Sony VAIO tower with an 300Mhz Pentium II, an ATI AllInWonder AGP card, and a Creative VooDoo 2 3D accelerator card.

LOL, stop giving juicy details to peeps who aren't subscribers ;)

How are you? :)

There's always a teaser to get more subscribers. Then you charge a fee to keep viewing the juiciness. :biggrin:



Hi Perky. Nice to see you. :) (And nakedfrog and vi edit and compuwiz 1 and I think I remember seeing ultimatebob around as well.)

We should have a bbq or something, dammit!

I was here before 1999. I think it was 1997 or 8 when I joined. When the forum was rather primitive.

I was drawn here by the motherboard reviews at the time.

Another AGN orphan here. Don't post much here anymore. Too many good folks were run off or just left. Still, good to see some of the old gang are sill around.

Hi Hazel! You and Jean (Geekbabe) and Isla and WombatWoman were all of a "generation" of wise and kind, non-troll but "proud to be a woman" type of female posters that were sorely needed at our ongoing sausage fest.
