HDBRbuilder Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 One would think that after going through the routine of registering in this forum, a newbie's first post would have SOMETHING to do with audio, instead of something like this posted by someone who is into suckering in people to look at it with the same type of non-descript "bullshit" title as found in spam e-mails attempting to get you to get a membership in an online porn site.

Ray Garrison Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 I agree it would have been nice if the post had been labelled something like "Off Topic: Kool Picture of Early Microsoft Staff" or something, but it *WAS* kind of a neat picture... I have the first three issues of PC magazine, and there's a photo from 1981 of Bill - he doesn't look a lot different than he does in this photo.

WMcD Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 On the other hand, we could do the Woody Allen bit. In this picture of innocent looking people, which is the biggest criminal in later life, having violated the anti-trust laws. That would be the guy in the lower left, no?

maxg Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 Bit harsh there HDBR - off topic but this is the General Forum so non-audio topics are not totally off the chart. I for one found the picture amusing, and have to admit I would never have lent these guys a dime!! I suppose it is a bit like all those guys that are supposed to have tested Coke and declared it would never sell. Or, on an audio level, all those guys that said "Bose are complete crap and will never sell at the over inflated prices." Or, on a Klipsch level, who would have put money on the Heritage range still being around in 2002?? ------------------ My System: http://aca.gr/pop_maxg.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9900 Posted May 15, 2002 Author Share Posted May 15, 2002 Yeah HDBR...TOUCH A NERVE?Did you miss your chance to invest? Lets see a photo of you and the Klipsch crew from 1978.Bet it looks the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDBRbuilder Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 9900...I think I made my point the first time...now 2 posts by you and still nothing related to audio? Is this just drive-by postings?

dougdrake Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 9900 - Welcome to the board! Personally, I enjoy many of the non-audio postings I've found here, as most of them are quite humorous. Mr. Fini (in addition to his audio posts) never fails to find the humor! Doug ------------------ My System Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9900 Posted May 15, 2002 Author Share Posted May 15, 2002 Thank you Doug. I think hdbr is upset because he got kicked out the Microsoft group & had to build speakers instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDBRbuilder Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 9900, Your third posting, and still not audio related, but yet two-thirds of this massive amount of postings are direct digs at me?...someone you know nothing about? Kinda shows your upbringing and intent on this BB, doesn't it? ------------------ If you want to send a private message, or have already done so, be aware I have not as yet been able to retrieve them.
