It's actually Spie in drag though.

I still have a pair of those Globalwin cases (still good after 7 years*), and had one of the Juno's for a couple of years before I gave it away to someone off the forum.



*Proof that a good case will outlast virtually any other component.

They would have never guessed that 1GB graphics is going to be worth it in 2008-2009 .

 

[Begbie]

Its wierd to see how much the technology has really changed.

Can't stop laughing at the OCUK ms paint masterpiece.

I've noticed Spie was more involved there and now we hardly see him.

 

[Kitchster_uk]

I remember having a heart-attack when mattpc off the forums was prying the plastic cover off my Athlon slotA 550 so we could fit a one of those little cards full of dip-switches freespeed pro?) and a golden orb - it was truly heart in mouth!!!

Also, we NEVER used to spam in them days...http://web.archive.org/web/20001216214500/www.overclockers.co.uk/ubb/Forum3/HTML/001070.html

edit/ we also seemed to be allowed to swear!!

Still got the Juno super large (was it a P7 or something?) in the cellar of my mates house that i used to share!

Obviously over time the business grew and I doubt you can expect the same level of communication.

 

[Hades]

Those Globalwin 802's were great. I had one. Also nice ATCS 200 there

Whats ICQ?

An old instant messenger... ICQ (say it out)... "I seek you"

 

[Tefal]

think he's semi retired and living the good life now.

 

[Indy500]

Ouch, that can't be right...£111 for a Geforce 2 MX? I paid £30 in 2000.

 

[willhub]

Shame, oh well.

Imagine in 8 years when people look at the archive and see it now, 8800GTX for £240, they'll be £20 before we know it .

 

[milkinc13]

just think in a few years what we're putting on here, will only be in the web archive & we'll looks back and have a trip down memory lane

Good website!

Old websites - they're a bit like watching old football on tv - crap compared to todays viewing
