View Full Version : Newbie Says HEY!
I did a search for SLK-900U reviews hoping to find an informative source to decide on my purchase. When I found the video review I was BLOWN AWAY!
WOW! Cool forums! And COOL REVIEWS! I feel like a dork, just now finding this place. I plan on lurking for a while and hope to make this place a permanent stop on my daily surfing. I don’t have many permanent stops as my time is very limited, but at first glance, this place looks worthy for sure!
I’m from Southern California near San Bernardino. I do programming for a living and build online applications for fun. I will post my main rig here when I put the finishing touches on it.
Just wanted to introduce myself and say ‘HEY!’…back to lurking

Hey! Welcome aboard!
I'm sure you will really enjoy it here, I know I do...
Oh and, in responce to the recent a$$-whooping Intel has dropped on AMD with the 800FSB, members here are no longer allowed to have Avatars supporting AMD, sorry 'bout that...maybe if AMD ever gets around to releasing the A64.

LOL! Thanks for the welcome! While I'm not a die-hard AMD fan, it still holds the best bang for the buck in my books. However, that being said, if I had $400.00 or so to blow on a top-notch CPU, I would probably go for the latest and greatest from Intel.
And no worries, the AMD avatar is only a temp until I get my custom avatar linked :D
There we go...custom avatar in place :luxhello

Welcome to the forums!
You'll love it here, just like I do!
Couple of things to look out for. Even though Darth Fetish has been hiding lately, you still have to be careful. Just don't drop your soap, alright?

True....
/me smells eggs cooking in the distance....
LOL, that is a pic of my UNCLE BUCK! ;)
I always wanted to use that one as an avatar. It looks to me like a composite of three images: A chimpanzee, a girl with pony tails and a guy with a bad part and a goatee. Scary no? :D

On a scale of 1-10....
1 being fluffy little kittens...
5 being a new 3Ghz P4 pushed a little too far
10 being darth fetish...
I'd give it a firm 8.75

A little background on my avatar:
LOL, I didn't make it, found it one day. I had a Rainbow Six clan that I did a web site for. I was looking for a pic to put up for member profiles when a member refused to send me a pic of them. :devil
This one did the trick. As you can imagine, they started sending me pics left and right. :) Now I just use it on occasion as an avatar. But if it bugs you too much I can switch to my old standby:

Actually, between the two, I can't decide which is more scary.
