    Theres me posting news shortly after i joined HEXUS in 2002 (3rd link down), has it REALLY been that long ! Look at the Beta Detonator version number compared to where its at now !

    Jeez, doesnt time fly !

    Heres to another many years loyal service to HEXUS (albeit just as a forum mod now ! )

    wow that time went quickly, i can still remember new years eve 1999 as if it was about 2 weeks ago.

    PS i like the 2002 version of the website than the current one.

    your computer is similar to a fridge in that if it cannot keep a beer cold then it sucks

    It is hard to judge, we believed it was our very good friend Andy Drake of BXBoards, but he closed down. It was more so a respect level we had for him and his site (very well founded too!)

    Anyhow - Checkout HEXUS.com in 98,99 too

    HEXUS has grown a hell of a lot over the years, just wait for our next big milestone

    Your big scan icon reminded me; how much scan has changed over the years too .. I remember when you guys had a little shop.. bought our first printer, for my first computer from there...

    We cannot choose what we are.. but what are we but the sum of our choices?
