So much so in fact, that it is actually good to read as far back as you can to get to the interesting stuff.
Those were the pioneering days. The heydays of the early adopters. Where someone would plunk down close to $100 on a unkown ATA and hope for the best. The product was so new that Sherman was actually handling tech calls helping me. I suppose he wasn't very busy back then. I miss not seeing the war of words between MichiganTelephone and RonR, although it was one sided as RonR never replied. There was quite a bit of drama back then. Lest we forget the most infamous day of all in obhai history. The day that Obihai pushed their firmware on an unknowing public. The problem with that is that it freaked out all the early adopters who are generally tech-savvy and who didn't think that it was possible thinking that it was prevented. I remember following in real time as RonR would single handily field questions and troubleshoot issues. Whatever happened to jimates, PC44, Ad_Hominem, infin8loop and Stewart (and others). Heck I even miss not seeing the occasional post from obihai themselves, obisupport, OBi-Guru, ShermanObi.
Yes Smee, I agree with you. Look back, sometimes way back, for some interesting gems of advice. At the moment a few key contributors make it interesting enough to maintain an interest in this forum. Over the last couple of years many topics have been covered in this forum that run the gamut from networking to pizza making (I kid you not on the last one). For those of you who are new to the forum, my advice is to search the topics on the forum. Either use the search feature on the top level of the forum headings, or better yet use google itself to search this forum.
Google ex: 'site: obitalk.com/forum/ + your topic'Enjoy.
