Reading Neowin news since Windows 7 Beta, @ 2009.

Lost access to the original Neowin account when the Yahoo mail database was hacked.

 

Mods: Is there a way to regain access to the original Neowin account without my yahoo mail?

See DM

Almost 10 years since creating my first account... This is a new account... Was just accessing the website for software direct links... Even the official websites of software do not use their own server [some] and it made me access Neowin on a regular basis... I use IDM and it has the option to use the server creation/modified date [which I preferred]... Was just reading comments [when account was not a requirement] back then but decided to add my thoughts to some of the news/topics...

Hah, lots of OGs in here. I'm close to 15 years, lurking around for probably 5 more, found it from warp2search and registered for a competition, i won something but never got it due to being in EU.

Not very active in the forum now, but still second button in the bookmark toolbar and good source of news.

I've been visiting this site and guru3d since pretty much the beginning though when i was tweaking windows 2000 because windows ME ****** major ***. Neowin gave me the ""courage"" to install windows 2000 on my home computer. Neowin was pretty small back then. Here's a post from this time XD

Not a huge contributor but a regular follower of Neowin. When I first registered, under a different username, I was something like the 1900th user.  So what year would that translate to?

your profile shows you joined in July 2015

That is probably when I registered under my current name.  Previously I went by the name streetwolf.  When I registered as streetwolf my profile stated I was about the 1900th member which I guess was more than 20 years ago.

    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
