: Awesome... That was a great exclusive for us, even if it turned out to be
: vaporware... As the OpenMac seems it will likely be.
We managed to procure a good handful of those sorts of exclusives, didn't we?
: Anyhow, even as a starving college student, it only costs about $75 a year to
: keep MacOpz online... So I plan to keep it up indefinitely, if only to
: stay in contact with those that have been part of the forum and to keep
: the work we did do out there. I've given serious thought to giving the
: site some life over the summer break though. The biggest problem is
: finding something to write about that can't be found everywhere else
: (which was always sort of the mission statement of MacOpz.) If nothing
: else perhaps I will talk about some of the iPhone Apps I'm working on. But
: I'd really like to find a real exclusive. It's been a long time.
Tough to do if you're not an established power, but not out of the question...
: That's awesome! I'm sure you'd have gone the same direction without us, but
: it's kind of cool to be able to say "That guy got his start with
: us." :) I was a bit older than you, but I was pretty much a kid as
: well. It was just a hobby that seemed sort of fun at the time. I obviously
: lost the drive to keep the site particularly relevant at some point, and I
: think Trigger lost that drive even earlier.
You can say that again. I was busy being a delinquent youth...
: It has long been in the back
: of my mind to bring MacOpz back to life. Perhaps I'll do that over the
: summer.
I might have a good bit of time to devote to that with my new job.
: Anyhow, delightful to hear from you, and I'm glad that you went forward in
: life utilizing your writing talents, which I have always considered to be
: immense.
Hehe, what he said!
Good to see you, Spiff, it's been too long!
