| Some of our users may be aware of the history of this site, for those that aren't, HPC:Factor was a baby born (as most babies are) of two parents. The team of Clinton Fitch, John Rubier, Jeff Townsley and Sean Fernstrum on one side, and me and my contribution, "ce320" on the other.
In recent times, because of the date, it hasn't been appropriate to celebrate, however I think that this year, with the past behind us all it is worth mentioning.
Today is the 6th anniversary of the founding of ce320, and therefore the 6th anniversary of my webmastering in the Windows CE community. Much of what you see on this site today came out of ce320, the CESD, the HCL and much more started there. So happy birthday ce320, and happy half birthday HPC:Factor.
It took me a while to dig this out: |

| Sorry for being somber, though - I can't help thinking how bittersweet the first anniversary of ce320 was.  |

| Yes, you are very much right. There was only really one event on that day though. I did not say much on the subject, and I haven't said much since. At the time the 11//9/2001 news post was pre-dated, in reality it was made on the 14th/15th. |

| Why is it that every time I read this thread I get the song from Alice In Wonderland stuck in my head...
"A very happy unbirthday to you! To me? To you!"
Pretty darn cool Chris.... Hard to believe it has been that long!  |

Quote Statistics prove, prove that you've one birthday
One birthday every year
But there are three hundred and sixty four unbirthdays
That is why we're gathered here to cheer
A very merry unbirthday to you, to you
A very merry unbirthday to you, to you
It's great to drink to someone
And I guess that you will do
A very merry unbirthday to you
*twitch* Quote
A very merry unbirthday to us, to us
A very merry unbirthday to us
If there are no objections
Let it be unanimous
A very merry unbirthday to us
A very merry unbirthday to me (to who)
A very merry unbirthday to me (to you)
Let's all congratulate me
With a present I agree
A very merry unbirthday to me
A very merry unbirthday to all, to all
A very merry unbirthday to all, to all
Let's have a celebration
Hire a band and rent a hall
A very merry unbirthday
A very merry unbirthday
A very merry unbirthday to all
Oh dear... That's going to be stuck in my head all day now. |
