If you got here in some other way, please don't vote, post your way of getting in here, and we'll add that option in our poll.

I voted WindowsBBS but actually I should have voted for "smartcomputing" to "smartercomputing" to "smartestcomputing".

The reason being...I clicked on a "smartcomputing" link Broni had in his signature when he posted one time in WindowsBBS and the rest is history. I joined "smartcomputing" then moved over to "smartercomputing" then moved over to "smartestcomputing".

**Whew** What a trip...hehehehe

As always, Tonto is trying to twist thing up side down...
I promised him mega Rams, not bucks. Since my divorce, I don't need any secret attched appartments (especially in an igloo), I can do my things in my own place, but Ram may need such a secret place to watch his special movies downloaded from an internet..... :beers:

Very good indeed. I just registered also. Don't know if it is here or somewhere I found out about the following site here, but I go there quite often. In fact anywhere I can find info about Linux.

Systemgods has been in existence for over 3 years. They had several crashes that wiped out the membership and all the post's each time. Now people are reluctant to comeback because of the crashes. It just hasn't gotten off the ground since they got a new server several months ago. To make things worse, the founder of the site lost his Father 2 months ago and he is having a very hard time dealing with that huge loss. Its very sad. :fat_face_sad:
