I joined because I like how active it is, with its many different forums

What first brought me here was Autopatcher, back when it was in full swing (I mean full)

I've come back because, I had a good look around and it was a cross between Bleeping Computer and here

I asked a Mod there for a little help, and I'm still waiting for the reply.

Whereas here the Mods are very (I mean very) quick and helpful all the time.

Basically it was the Mods here that was the icing on the top. I'll see how things go for a while.

Oh and I like "Activity" window, that helps too.

I suppose the only thing I don't like is the huge banners, I think its the members signatures, all over the place.

I find that a real put off, but I suppose its in grained now, so no use arguing about all those ads !

Anyway, thanks for having me so far. And to the active Mods: your good work is noticed :)

I found it like yesterday, and I don't remember how I did it... Strange. But I think it was through a Google search, I was searching for something - Windows related I suppose. Great site, can't say the same thing about the members though :p

...nah, just kidding. I love you all!

Friend told me about it one day, and I was also getting sick of hearing him talk about "Just reading forums" and I got to the point were I thought... "link me to this forum you go on so much", and it was Neowin.

Was interesting so I registerd.

*Note: NiceCarpet-ng. Got me into it :D

A google search brought me to an article listed on the BPN, and I noticed that I pretty much liked all of the news listed there. I checked it casually for about a year or so in the Lo-Fi version (that's what google brought me to), not realizing that it was actually a huge site and forum!

After clicking the full-site button, it changed my homepage and news source forever :p

Searching for information during the Neptune and then Whistler betas brought me to this site. I can still remember what the front page looked like. Thinking about it makes me miss college and the simple life... but only for a moment.

ArtScott, welcome to neowin. I see so many of the "1 post" wanderers here and there. So amazing the most people that contribute to this thread has only a couple post and they went silent for ever.

    • I agree, especially if it is cloud sourced, like this one is.. but I wouldn't say no to a local AI assistant similar to the Zettlab one which would be really helpful with my large Photos library, but also to perform tasks like installing Docker apps rather than me having to do it via Docker Compose, but I don't think we're quite there yet. Synology Photos is somewhat AI, you can ask it to search for certain people (if you have tagged them and it will attempt to match similar photos to the person) and if you put a search term in for "cars" for example, it will show you all photos with a car.
    • I doubt that Google will keep the same price... it may go up from that list published.
    • Sennheiser's audiophile grade HD 600 hits lowest ever price on Amazon Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen If you are in the market for high-quality audiophile-grade over-ear headphones then Sennheiser's HD 600 are a great choice for sure, especially today on Prime Day 2026 as the product has hit its lowest ever price (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Sennheiser HD 600 has long been regarded as a reference headphone for listeners seeking a detailed and natural listening experience. It is an open-back design that is built around the idea of acoustic transparency which is essentially said to allow sound waves to move freely for a more spacious and accurate presentation by reducing turbulence and the type of distortion that can result from it. At the heart of the product is Sennheiser’s proprietary driver system featuring a 42 mm driver paired with a lightweight diaphragm and aluminum voice coils. The company says this design helps deliver fast response times and better articulate sound across the audible frequency range. Comfort and durability are also key aspects of the HD 600 as the headphones feature soft velour ear pads designed for extended listening sessions. The HD 600 comes with a detachable 3-meter cable, a 6.3 mm stereo connector, and a 3.5 mm adapter for compatibility with a wide range of audio equipment. The technical specs of the Sennheiser HD 600 are given in the table below: Specification Value Transducer Principle Dynamic, Open-Back Ear Coupling Circumaural (Over-Ear) Frequency Response 12 Hz – 40,500 Hz Sound Pressure Level (SPL) 97 dB (1 V) Impedance 300 Ω Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) < 0.1% (1 kHz, 1 V) Cable Length 3 m (9.8 ft) Connector 3.5 mm Stereo Jack Plug Included Adapter 6.3 mm (1/4") Stereo Jack Adapter Weight 260 g Magnetic Field Strength 1.8 mT Driver Size 42 mm Dynamic Driver Diaphragm Size 38 mm Get it at the link below: Sennheiser HD 600: $237.00 (Sold by Electronics Expo, Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $449.95) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • So the card is targeted at headphone users - so the review should be from someone that uses this - maybe I can review a card next time.
