#172209 - 25/07/2003 12:01 System Administrator Day
tfabris carpal tunnel Registered: 20/12/1999 Posts: 31597 Loc: Seattle, WA	Today is System Administrator Appreciation day. Ironically, the www.sysadminday.com site is down at the moment. I'd like to express my appreciation to the system administrators of this bulletin board and riocar.org. Thanks for keeping us working! _________________________ Tony Fabris

wfaulk carpal tunnel Registered: 25/12/2000 Posts: 16706 Loc: Raleigh, NC US	I'm thinking 24/7 might have been a better choice of days.... And I don't think it's ironic at all. They probably took the day off to go appreciate themselves. Edited by wfaulk (25/07/2003 12:16) _________________________ Bitt Faulk

Well, from the only one who really monitors the boards here, your welcome. I'm just glad I have been able to keep it hosted where it is for so long for free. Part of that probably has to do with Epic hosting udn.epicgames.com on the same box, and paying well for that service. So, [unintentional plug]go buy Unreal Tournament 2003[/unintentional plug]

Aside from the MAME games, the only others I play regularly are UT2003, and Quake 2 on Silicon Graphics (as there are some nice extras - really high resolutions, good transparencies with refraction etc) _________________________ Rory MkIIa, blue lit buttons, memory upgrade, 1Tb in Subaru Forester STi MkII, 240Gb in Mark Lord dock MkII, 80Gb SSD in dock
