Invision perhaps?



Invision actually looks decent. All I can remember is it's got an orange/grey theme resembling the old THG homepage.
I don't think that software is even around anymore.

Hmmm... I'm being nostalgic again, I'll stop now.

I don't see that on the wiki. IIRC he left THG during 2004 due to different opinions in management. He is much more like Anand, a true enthusiast at heart.

[EDITED]Look what I just dug up. :lol: [/bored]

It's a still quite a sight to behold though. Pretty sure even after all these years it's still ranked #2 after Crashman in post counts. It's my last piece of souvenir I have on this forum.

It's actually 32.5k, a lot of posts got lost (technically speaking none of those posts even exists on the forum's database anymore, it's all be wiped clean :cry: )

If you're not second, you're 3rd behind Wingy. However, I think Wingy would gladly settle with 3rd so he can go behind you.

I liked the forum look before this one.

It had a reply to button. Much better than having to include long quote or whatever. Made keeping track of conversations much easier.

I severely doubt it. Google caches only once at a time and the internet archive was prevented from caching pages from this domain, otherwise we'd be able to go back to 1998 or so.

That article has an inaccuracy. The Federal Court is not really similar to the Supreme Court, since it doesn't deal with Constitutional matters. It's just the court that deals with most corporate matters. The High Court is the equivalent of the US Supreme court though, and that's likely where any appeals to this decision will take place.

The film industry merely wants the profits that they are entitled to. It's exactly the same as the MPAA and the RIAA. But they don't go about getting those profits in a very "rational" way, let alone ethical.

Some of the threads created in the Server forum the past few days are very 'home' stuff, and the replies they receive is super-lame homebuilt forum quality posts. :(

Why is no one asking the harder enterprise stuff for me to answer?

Maybe I should go spend more time in the Storage forum again and try to see if there's any SAN related threads in there.
