This is a public notice to commend Aussie on his time and effort in the forums as well as other areas of this site. Aussie has been here since the early days of this site and has put a lot of time and effort into this place.

He has taught countless people (including me) a lot when it comes to computers.


Keep up the great work Aussie!!! cool

Aw cut it out guys this is embarrassing. oops oops oops

This old mug has been hanging around here for some time, there's no denying that:-

http://www.motherboards.org/forums/memberlist.php

I must admit that I have fond memories of the early days on these forums back when I was a novice at identifying motherboards and every day was a day of discovery as new things were learned about the black art of mobo ID. lol

Being open about my methods did pay off in the long run though because it played a part in attracting other knowledgable people such as HWJ, evasive & Toby B to these forums which eased the workload considerably as the forums grew in popularity and as my available time became limited. Once these guys came on board the pace of knowledge growth increased dramatically and today the collective knowledge of the mods on this forum, with regard to motherboard identification at least, would have to be world class. Where else can you find such a resource in one place?

I'm happy to have played and to continue to play a small part in this whole phenomenon.

Thank You.


Aussie

ack...and all this time I thought you where Tony Blair....

Just kidding. This board means a great deal to me as well. A decent meeting place helping out when we can. And as such...when someone does work above and beyond the call of duty? The hat's come off and congrats are given.

From my family...(and Lacy the wonder Kitty)...Well Done smile

All Best

Yeah I think Aussie is really what got me into IDing mobo's in the first place. He was around on the site long before I was.
