Congratulations to Richard also, lucky !!
 
Also congratulations to Stan and Michael. Well done guys!
 
Id also like to thank the M&M's (and all the mvp's) for the great job they do, and the wonderful site they have created. Im glad to be a part of it.
 
- I've been working in IT for about 2 and half years now, and I've always wanted to get involved with a forum/ online community, but I couldn’t find one I felt was friendly to newbie's, or patient enough with people who are just starting out. Your site has been an absolute joy to visit, and as you probably know I do so, every day. I'm really glad you consider my contribution worthy of mention, and that I don’t come off as an annoying smarty pants, lol!
 
Thanks again.
 
PS. Any chance of swapping Vista for an XBOX360 (Elite of course)

Robert,

I'd go for an XBOX360 as well :)  But I may have a laptop coming that will run that Vista just fine.  My current computer wont run it.

So where is Stan?

Hi Simon,
 
Welcome to the site and forum! I have added the SBS Specialist logo to your profile. You don't have to pay for that
