    Had a problem with Norton. You guys fixed it by helping me remove and install AVG. Now I come here everyday. My boss still doesn't understand "MajorGeeks.com" in the favorites list. He doesn't complain, the 'puter has never ran better...

    I searched far across the motherboards,travelled beneath the RAM modules n seek inside the HDD,peep between the graphic cards and listen to the wild calls from the sound cards...Finally,I reached here~~ :p

    Yep, I then ended up on the two boards that were resurrected out of that - to this day...the rest is history. ;)

    I was a former 3DFiler, went to the LAN parties, etc. After 3DFiles went, I got hooked up on Kodo's site, and then ran into Tim occasionally at the mall, computer shows, etc. He told me about MajorGeeks about a month before it went live, and here I am :)

    Actually I should put some credits up... The lady geek was done by Wenchie, and all the other cartoons were done by Major Issues. I just made the background and the text and other messings about

    Wel I was one of a few old Tweekfilers who still had TFs IP bookmarked, funny enough one day someone I cannot remember who ( sloppygoat I think ) mentoned on a board a few of us setup while TFs was missing that Tweakfiles was back.... so we posted on that board only to find that its was Jim/Tim testing out the forthcomming Majorgeeks... we were given the URL to the Majorgeeks test page a few weeks before it went live and used it and 2+ years later he I still am :)

    I first met Kodo back a couple sites while involved in a racing game called Motorhead. I was just coming out of one game scene and some of us was looking for a new home and Kodo graciously gave us one. Being the class guy he is it was only natural to follow him through various projects, MG being the best one.

    You followed Kodo here?? Did you have to clean up the mess he left on the trail? ;)
