I only now realised that ten days ago marked fifteen years since I have registered on Neowin. In internet years, that's half an eternity.

I may not be as active as I used to be on the forum. There have been times when I was close to giving up on this community, for various reasons. Yet here I still am. 

 

Will I be able to open a 20th or 30th anniversary on Neowin thread? Only time will tell.

Congratulations, Frank!  Like you, I've been on for 15 years as well.

Only 2 months away from 15 years myself, do we get a special badge?

Apparently not.  But that would be nice!

I was a loooong-time visitor and reader before I actually joined the Forums ... March 2003 for me. I remember the Windows XP Launch Day events well ... what times those were. "XP Madness" back when everyone was still on Windows 98 or Windows 2000 (because nobody was using WinME) ... ahhh, memories. :yes:

    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility

      By matthiew · Posted

      When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!

    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates

      By matthiew · Posted

      I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
    • Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge

      By matthiew · Posted

      Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
