I started here with a few tech support questions and eventually gravitated towards ATOT to pass the time at work.

Just like everything else that is cool, once word gets out about it the idiots join in swelling the ranks and lowering the quality. ATOT is a prime example of that.

I found it whilst doing reseach on building a new computer. That was 4 years ago, and sadly I still use that computer.

Couple of guys I work with told me about this place. Decided to check it out. Turned out to be a great waste of time.
