[GeekDrew]

I've been around since way before my account says I was... IIRC, it wasn't AnandTech when I joined... it was Anand's something-or-other. It's been forever.

After about a year of involuntarily being offline, I came back... and rejoined.

I typed www.ati.com and it took me here instead.

hahah j/k

I was here during the whole DVD Hot Deals craze... 😛

 

[AU Tiger]

I first started reading Anandtech when Anand first started doing reviews. He used to also post to newsgroups and had links to his website in his posts. It must have been 1996 when I first remember going to his website.

I think I came across this site when browsing Tom's Hardware one time. Long ago.
