theyarecomingforyou Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I started following Neowin while Windows XP was still in development and remember how crazy the site went after 9/11. It's amazing to think how much time I've spent here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xolvix Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I was on a Linux forum and there was a discussion regarding Linux fanboys (of which there are numerous examples) and how they make Linux a toxic community to be a part of. People seemed to believe it's only Linux and OSX that have fanboys and that Windows doesn't, so to provide a counterpoint someone provided a link to a news article posted on Neowin which was absolutely dripping with Windows fanboyism and honestly, some slander against Linux (I think it was that "Linux is dead on the desktop" article from a few years back, can't quite remember).

lobsteroh Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 hi all, i found this place when i was trying to find out how to score an invite for google inbox. i have been on google's request list for weeks but have not had a nibble. i have recently redone most of my personal computer system, ditched all commercial software solutions and have finally made the step to completely go with open source solutions. you know what? life is already much better ... my email is currently the only thing that i am not happy with and i am hoping that inbox will be a useful solution for this. i have been an early google adopter for everything from chrome to glass to the nexus phones and tablets. i have written an public domain college textbook for animal behavior <http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Animal_Behavior>, i am developing open source software for computational ethology <iethology.com>, and i do basic medical research on different neurological diseases. if anyone is willing to share an inbox invite, i will be eternally grateful. i can sweeten the deal by offering to send you a jar of our organic honey from our apiary at the Black Swamp Conservation area <black-swamp.org>, with best wishes and warm greetings, robert <rh.bgsu@gmail.com> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadPirateRoberts Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Well I use to be on a forum with a really small community and threads got barely any reply's and eventually I got bored of it so I decided to go looking for another forum with a larger community and that's how I found Neowin. I have to say this forum is far better than what I was previously using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
