It only counts toward the inspiration for the name of this club.I carry Gold Dot does that count for anything here?
BTW, I would just like to point out that Scutter broke the 4 Gold Dot barrier a few minutes ago.

Nope. I did that, but you guys earned your way here, too. Congrats, Techres, and !Pretty sure ATM broke the "Mod Ceiling", but if not I am right behind him.
Blessings,

Bill and Rhino respectably cleared that hurdle before me. I careened through the gate sideways and upside down due to horrific oversight by those who reward me with rep when I'm a smarta$$.
I'm not worthy.
*but pass the bacon, please*
I am just hoping that I did not contribute to this wretched mistake!
Maybe someday I will be a member of the gold dot club.. but that is too far away to even think or worry about.
Refused to cook bacon? I don't think that's allowed.
*checks the again*
Clearly an infraction of club etiquette and BCC (Bacon Code of Conduct.)
Flame on, fry boy!
Congrats Lars!

I retract part of my previous statement. Apparently being an old school internet user has perks
Dude, you're not old enough to be an old school internet user!
I will say he is very much his father's son, and his father currently runs the network for a large health care conglomerate up in WI. It's in his blood.You must have been five years old!
I disagree.... Started with bulletin boards in the early 80's, moved to the internet via SLIP/Trumpet Winsock/Windows 3.1 ~ 1992, Installed slackware 1.0 in 93 (downloaded 30ish floppies iirc....)
I just started young.... The first computers I used were Burroughs Mainframes, connected via dumb terminal and 300baud at St. Joseph's Hospital in Milwaukee. Played Castle, and Adventure on it.
My first 'puter was a Radio Shack special... 80286, I think... no hard drive initially, though I added one later, but I did get a second 5.25" floppy for it at time of purchase. 300 baud acoustic coupler modem, too, and logged on to PC-Link (predecessor of AOL) and Prodigy. Damn, that was a long time ago.
My first computer was a TI-99/4A. Remember those bad boys? I learned how to program in extended basic and would spend hours tinkering on it. I actually used a cassette drive to store programs. It would take 30 minutes to load a program!Good God... Trumpet Winsock and Win 3.1? I'd almost forgotten that combination. I started with DOS 3.0 and eventually moved to Win 3.1.
