Why would you think that?

WarEagleAU · Apr 2, 2010

Oh I don';t know, it was the first picture I seen on google images when I was going through and linked back to the XS forums :laugh:

Of course I could be waaaaay wrong Paulieg.

No... Not The W1zz...

Here's a picture of me, Banjo and the W1zz

Polaris573 · Apr 2, 2010

That's not W1zzard. I'm highly doubtful any pictures of him exist on the internet that are tagged W1zzard.

i know, its like googling bruce wayne and getting pics of the batman.

kinda stupid to reveal your secret identity like that.

Steevo · Apr 2, 2010

I'm batman.........

And that pic of XF looks like a guy i know (EP) who used to work for the MOD and loved Ibiza and beer.

After all the drama in the comments section of our Fermi review, I realized that continuing with hardware reviews and this tech "scene" might not be what I want to do with my time in the future.

So I looked for options out of this mess, and found one, TPU will be operated by a different company in the near future, I will be leaving the site. But fear not, most of the staff will remain here, the site and forums will stay the same in the near future (months). However, I have no idea what's going to change in the long run but I'm sure it will be for the best.

Further info and a more detailed schedule will follow when I have a better idea what will happen with my software projects and other internals of the site.

To be completely honest with you, i know you're capable of doing ALOT more things than just putting your mind on to one site. I really hope it's not an April fools joke because i think he finally has realized that his life is MUCH MUCH more than he had expected. The reason why W1zard doesn't charge for his software is because he doesn't believe in the money system. Just remember there aren't much of "US" left out there, we're disappearing everyday. Good luck to you my brother...

AsphyxiA · Apr 2, 2010

Unless I missed something and this was a terrible joke (didn't want to read through all 800 and some posts). I wish you the best W1zzard! Your site really helped me to get into the scene and I've always gone to your very unbiased reviews first before anyone else's.

Thank you and you will be missed

HalfAHertz · Apr 2, 2010

So, uh, when do we start the first IAWR(I am Addicted to W1zzards Reviews) meeting? I was hoping we can start from this Sunday at 10.00? And then we can carry on with a prayer in the name of the Hardware Gods and their messiah W1zzard every 3rd hour? Finally we could finish the day with a sacrifice of a degraded CPU or some DDR sticks...
