Looking at the Memberlist - almost 25,000 and looking at your user id - almost 34,000

Only you appear to be counting - and if we are counting I am only a month behind you.

So what should we do to celebrate your 19 years as a registered user?
Should we do the same for the other 34,000+? :roll:

Yes it's true, I went into your wonderful musical link in your starting topic. A great musician:

George Harrison

Back to topic: ;)
I found psoTFX (Paul S. Owen) 03 Jul 2001, 22:50 in the members list -> CREDITS.txt [2001 - 09/2005],
and
BartVB (Bart van Bragt) 02 Aug 2001, 15:32 in the members list -> CREDITS.txt [11/2000 - 03/2006].

// OT
Hi, who is in demand?
Do you not mean my Commodore 64 ... :D - or you mean my IBM PCs 286ff / x86-Architektur / modem etc.? Purchase price at that time approx: 20.000,-- (in Germany (about around 20 years ago and in succession - at that time the price situation was extreme)). However, functionally always in use.

Regards

When nintendo an Atari was the unique choose on 80s a famous track that anyone know was this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8r-tXRLazs

Until it has not come out, the unique possibility to play, was to expend 50lire :D into bar's: Pong by atari, or space invaders

My first PC was the commodore 64, but i was more or less (if not wrong) 12 years old, and used it only to play games. Games were (also) coming into music cassette. In the while, Mario Bros born and it was the first amazing game were i loosed my mind, like many others.

Then one day a friend was play with wafers programming, to see gratis TV programs. I decided that it was fascinating to code something and fuck off encryption for fun. I assume it was 1998. My pc was running pentium 600, modem 56k.
At this time, already reported into another post, there was a program called Download Accelerator.
So that if something required to be download, you had the possibility to chunk a big download that may to complete was requiring days or an entire week.

It was a great time! I hope our world can feel again the wind we have breathed over the years.
It will be again, this is my hope, i am sure it will be

And now I understand the problems you can see
