    Howdy all ...

    Been a real long time since i've been to this site. Why i haven't, no idea really, as it is a great free-style site. I really like all the sub-distro board catagories along with the usenet access. I will definitly have to visit more often.

    But (grin), when i went to my url fieled in my browser ... i couldn't quite remember the name, so i typed in linuxforums.com !

    I could swear that this used to be a .com rather than a .org in it's early days. I can remember posting a question on it and the site author replyed that the .com name happened to be cheaper than the .org at the time --- made sense to me ...

    There is a linuxforums.com site ! which appears to be just starting up and also appears to be an almost exact clone of this one. Except there are no posts on it yet (grin), on account of it just starting up.

    Not a problem for me, but i am somewhat curious non the less (grin)

    seems hardly a day goes by with out something or the other strange happening.

    Anyhow, cheers to all, i'm glad i refound this totally excellent site.

    Fair comment ... i think i can remember there was a board link at one time. Certainly not there now. I was probably thinking of linuxforums.com which has a usersgroups link. But there arn't any groups listed there as such.

    Yes, it has been a long time. I had not relised how long myself really.
