hi i belong to 3 boards so i spend a lot of time . reading mostly and posting when i can. most of my time is spent at besttecie tho the last few days ive posted at g4 more than usual. not having been a compt person before these boards. i had a lot of adjusting to do. i once had a reputation for being straight to the point and when i joined techtv c.f.h i was brought down to earth because of my tendecy to try and tell it as it is . but i hope i dont do that any more .tho im tempted and the way is to suck up.instead i find that hard to do but i now have more freinds on the boards than i us
