I'm...well, out of Hospital. To say i'm back would be premature, because i'm not feeling great at the moment. I feel light headed and dizzy constantly, and i'm needing to take a lot more rest than I anticipated. I can't concentrate on anything at the moment and I keep getting stuck on basic puzzles in Legend of Zelda, which is the only thing I've really been doing between force feeding myself.

I'm getting there but it's going to be a long, long, road. I'm still not allowed to drive-in fact, i'm not allowed to drive for another 13 days or so, even though the Operation was 15 days ago.

But good news...despite all the trouble with my disease, I not only managed to pass my exams and qualify for my 4th year at Uni, but I got a letter this morning saying that I'm also in the Masters course! Whoo! That's great news. It means they believe in me and my abilities for one thing, which is great considering all the circles i've been making them run in to accommodate me.

Custom PC magazine in the UK also sent me an e-mail asking if they could do an article about the TIP-3000, although I don't know if I'm supposed to say till it's all been finalized...anyway, I'll let you know how that one goes! Considering Custom PC is the only place apart from here that i've advertised the TIP-3000, I'm pretty pleased about this, and I'm considering submitting it to a few more sites.

Anyway, what's been going on here? Did my eyes decieve me, or had Minty returned to us? What's this about Bucko being in Hospital? Let me know about any events of note, because to be honest, i'm far too tired to read all the posts.

I'm recovering...it's going to be a long road, but I'll be back... :)

Welcome back Dave!

Man, that's all great news! Congrats on everything man, especially the Custom PC article! That's awesome!

Yes, Minty has returned. It's great having all these people back (Rank has been popping in and out too). Bucko was in the hospital for diabetes but he's back now. We've had a few more people join too that have some great stuff to post.

I hope you start feeling better and it's great to see you back!

OK, one thing that may interest you. Check out the modders challenge posts in the staff area. We are only waiting on Crimson's nod and we can announce a winner. Some pretty cool stuff.

Oh, and yes, we did miss you!

G'day again Dave!

Yes, I unbanned Minty at his request and yes I was in Hospital for a week.
I only went to hospital because I knew you were there and I wanted to be like the cool kids.
I was diagnosed with Diabetes and had to get that under control before I could get parole.
GT40 decided he wanted to be cool as well, so he went into Hospital for a little while and had his appendix removed and some nifty water cooling tubing installed instead. A nice clear hose hanging out of his gut made for all sort of modding ideas.

Glad to hear the Custom PC news and, more importantly, that you're feeling (at least) somewhat better Dave!

It's like Christmas with all of these old faces!

Good luck in recovering the rest of the way from the "op" (I thought it said Opteron at first, not Operation :p ), and congrats on the article!
