Since this is my 1000th post, I thought I'd bore you all with another piece of text full of meaningless statistics---just as I did when I passed the 500-mark on December 28th, 2004.
Back then, I was ranked 147th out of 4369 members; now I am 112th out of 5672.
I'm still 4th in the list of Dutch posters, after Speelgoedman, Odin, and Seer. But there's a bunch of new kids on the block who are rapidly catching up with this ole' bag'o'bones, and I suspect my position will take quite a nosedive once my post counter is at 1500. (If it ever gets that high, that is.)
It took me 771 days to go from 0 to 500; now it took me 1046 days. My posting average therefore decreased from 0,649 to 0,478 posts/day. This is no surprise, as I haven't been as active as I was back then.
Apparently some people have left A.org for good, as there are now just 823 people who've been a member for longer than I have. It was 895 when I hit the 500-mark.
And in all that time, Amiga, Inc. have STILL failed to provide us with a new Amiga. Hyperion did manage to release AmigaOS 4 in the meantime, AROS advanced significantly in the meantime, and so did Dennis' brilliant Minimig.
I'm now listening to Dido's bittersweet 'Thank You'. And with that, 'thank you' for reading this meaningless message, and for providing a rather weird community (in a good way!) full of computer, book, music, cycling, beer, chemistry and other enthusiasts.
