    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?
