Glassed Silver Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 I've been thinking about this recently. I seem to remember this was THE place for Windows news during one of the betas, maybe XP beta. But I'm almost certain that's how I got onto Neowin, because it made sense, New Windows - or at least that's how I read it. Has Neowin been around that long? I was trying everything including Wikipedia to actually see if anyone's written a bio of the site. They got it (Y) At least some facts...

Lazure Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 I don't remember precisely? I know for the longest time, I always referred XP users who didn't like Luna to this site to get the official uxtheme patcher for many years. I also came here to get the patcher whenever it updated when service packs came out for XP. What made me register? I also don't remember. I guess I just started browsing it one day and stuck with it, and when I wanted to reply to something I registered. Off and on I link threads from this forum to other people on various IRC rooms or IM protocols to reinforce a point or to show news on something.

socialcharlotte Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Had been reading the forum for some time and found it helpful for questions I have had.

TangoEight Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I saw it in YouTube user ubuntuhal's bookmarks bar in one of his ubuntu videos and decide to see if it was any good.

SaltLife Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I joined a long time (maybe 2002,2003)before the name I go by now (previously VDUBVR6). But for some reason my account vanished... Anyway, I came across this site thanks to the now osnn.net think they used to be called xp something...
