Ahh, this computer show was awesome. Except for the old dude that Greg mentioned in his previous post. This guy came up to us and not only tried to talk to us about how Dell computers sucked and how LiteOn Drives werent any good. Of all the things he said, the one that stuck me was when he said Gateway was better than Dell. WTF? Im not saying I support one or the other. However, in my experience, Dell has always been a better product. Their online support rocked, their on call support rocked, and they always got parts out to me within a day or two. But I digress. Anyway, so Greg and I pretty much listened to the guy, but in that way that you might listen to your parents sometimes, using the selective hearing filter. I think all I heard was blah blah blah, Dell Sucks, blah blah blah Gateway rules, Lite On SuX0rz. After listening to this guy, we each purchased a brand new 48x24x48 Lite On CD Burner. I tell ya, I burned over 500 cds on that thing and it still runs like it was brand new. We also stopped at the Penn Brewery for chow. I think I had a reuben there. It was pretty damn tasty. I gotta tell you, never come between a geek and his food, especially if he or she has been planted in front of the computer all day.
The good ol' days. 🙂
We are a small community, like Greg said. As we grow, we would most certainly like to maintain our small community type atmosphere. However, at the moment, we are quite small. This is a benefit to us at the moment since we're going to be customizing the look and feel of the forum. If there's a certain look or feel that you think would fit the forums, feel free to leave a post and we'll take it into consideration.
Like Greg also mentioned, we do know quite a bit on computers, covering a broad range of topics from hardware internals to programming, 3d design, graphics, etc. But like he also mentioned, we're no authority, by any means. And we do not warrant any advice given.
Welcome to the forums. Drop by the Introductions post and tell us about yourself. Then go exploring through the various web site posts and technical information. Most importantly, have fun and dont take things too seriously.
Welcome to the board Scott. If you ever get into any programming that I possibly understand, or want to
learn something new, let me know. Or even feel free to share your experiences with the programming you've
already done. Personally, Im always open to learning about languages Ive never worked with. I knew there
was a reason why they called me code bitch at work.
Enjoy the forum.
