Jediweasel Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I used my Jedi mind skills to locate the only place suitable for my maniac rantings and ravings. Actually it came up on a Google search when I was looking for an answer to an issue.

sweetsam Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Got here looking for solutions to some registry issues. I found this forum very helpful and been here since as a regular. Since then I have grown and now I try and help when I can :).

Steeley Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I remember browsing Winbeta.org and I think I noticed Neowin.net as a source for one of their articles. The rest is history. Exactly how I came across Neowin. Back at that stage I was looking for info on the new messenger beta or WMP 9 or something like that. Neowin is one of the most informative, friendly and visually pleasing websites I've been to - that's what keeps me coming back.

BigGiantHead Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Followed a link from another site, looking for info on WinXP around 2001, IIRC. Came across it several times after that regarding customising XP, though I didn't sign up until '05.

Talking Dreams Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Hello, I come in peace. I found Neowin a few months ago when I bought a new pc with Vista on it. I went searching for a forum that could help me with some problem I had. I see that I did not post here at that time so I'm guessing I may have found my answer here simply by doing a search. And now, I have yet another important question and I'm off to ask that question in the appropriate forum.

And awesome you've already got the system figured out! I er found this place actually looking for... Uh... Do I want to take this where I was going to... Um... Nah; I remember looking for Linux help about a month prior to when I joined and finally I made an account to ask a question. I wasn't really that active and still can't seem to put the effort into post-whoring or even being an amazing hand in the forums I'm good at but I'm always here. WOW... I'm almost at 4 years... As if... I'm gonna have start crafting an anniversary post. Funny thing is is very few people even know I'm here. I almost like it that way.

Reacon Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Originally, I was looking for a uxtheme.dll for SP3. When my original homepage went down, I knew that this was a good tech news site so I used this as my new homepage (and it still is), and eventually joined.

exmachina08 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 I found it probably 6 years ago because my friend who was way more tuned in on the internet at the time was always looking at it.

nothuman Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Thanks google. I can't remember what I was looking for but I ended up here and I said to myself "this look serious website, kind like Geekzone.fr where I have my habits". So I registered and more than a year after (meaning about a week now) I start posting. And it can't be bad for my english. :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/595450-how-did-you-find-neowin/page/15/#findComment-589982818 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TakeNothingBack Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I kept coming across the front page as a source in blog posts or just simple searches. I joined because the Mess with Messenger Forum pretty much died and I was beginning to find no satisfaction in visiting it any more.
