lazydesert Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 i was looking at 'adult material' and in one of the pictures, the watermark said 'neowin.net'. so i went to site thinking i'd get more pictures.. i searched and searched and there was none to be found. all my searching got me quite accustomed to the site and i grew to love all the techy news. joined the forums, and i've been here ever since.. btw, the 'adult material' picture i talked about earlier was of keldyn and timdorr.

Gism0 Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 well... when i had windows 98 (back in the day!!) i was really interested about the new betas of Windows Me (pos), so i started lookign at loads of these windows sites, and beta sites on the net, i would look at loads (including neowin) that i found, this continued with other OSs in development, including windows xp, eventually i didn't even need to look at the other sites; neowin had everything they had plus more, so i just check here now :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/27182-how-did-you-discover-neowin/page/2/#findComment-245744 Share on other sites More sharing options...

usr.bin Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 Sometime around when Whistler was Beta 1 I was a member of #WinXP on EFNet and there was this weird guy named Neobond who hung out in there, and he had a timer which advertised neowin. --dave Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/27182-how-did-you-discover-neowin/page/2/#findComment-245785 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Anarkii Subscriber² Posted May 16, 2002 Subscriber² Share Posted May 16, 2002 I remember coming here when this site was only just beginning, I only registered last year coz thats when the forums really took up, but been a "lurker member" for about a year or 2 before that. This was back when IE6 was leaked, (way before iexbeta.com got on the scene) and i think this site if i remember correctly seemed to focus on windows betas. At the time neowin was hosting pre-release builds of IE6 for Win2k, and this place seemed like the only place to download them from. Been here ever since the beginning/early beginnings :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/27182-how-did-you-discover-neowin/page/2/#findComment-246104 Share on other sites More sharing options...
