A warm welcome to Restless, our 1000th member.
Now it's only $200 each to meet the donations target!

Woohoo!! I knew 1k would come one day, but never thought it would come this soon, esp. as registration is optional
Congrats to Patrick for creating a great product and for everyone else for creating a great community. While it may be a bit haphazard at times, there is no single corporate sponsor and no grandiose money-making plans for any of us. Neo/J and its community are really a labor of love for all involved. In the long run I think that's what builds a revolution.
It doesn't matter whether we topple Microsoft, topple Apple, get millions from Sun, or whatever. We've made new friends and made a fun place to hang out and talk and rant, sober, drunk, what have you. I dig it

I totally agree. This is one fantastic product and I'm glad to be a part of those who use and abuse it.
It's great to have this size of a support community. Now to get Patrick that G5 desktop system.

I have a friend whose daughter is a web site designer who has a Dual G5 cpu and a 30" monitor. That is the system to build on! Cost: USD 7,000. Of course that is my dream system, too.

Well, hopefully by the end of the weekend the new CVS server will start rocking out While not quite a G5 or dual P4, it's fun to play with a speedy PA-RISC machine.
