I seriously doubt he has the time.

We're currently doing a final test import of FT over to vB. The mods/admins will get first access when it's done. The plan was to launch vB with the new AT site redesign in Q4 but we moved things around to prioritize the vB transition.
I'm 27 now, started at 14. Working 60 - 80 hour weeks for most of the past years definitely make me feel old now I still feel young at heart. This past September took a lot out of me, was pushing 14 - 18 hour days for 7 days straight for all but 3 days of the month (minus airport time).
I was married for a short period of time, not everything makes sense to do at a very young age - learned that the hard way, but it was a good lesson. Girlfriend though, super talented photographer. Life is good, parents are well and healthy. I'm happy.
Oh and the hair - I think my dad is partly to blame for that, although he lost his a bit later than me I don't mind though, I've never relied on looks (and definitely not hair) to impress
I do want to do video in the future. If I can make it work, it'll be a 2010 thing.
Take care,
Anand
p.s. depending on your definition, only half durka durk, but born in MA
Pics of said GF? this is OT afterall
thanks for the VB update

wow, you guys are awesome thank you.
I want to do video, my plan was to do it this year, but this year turned out to be even busier than expected. I actually did some sample stuff, playing with different formats, delivery, etc... that never made it to the site. The tekzilla stuff makes me want to try a few more things. I have a problem with wanting to do more than I have time to, so I need to be careful not to get too excited until I can make it work
Take care,
Anand

Sweet, video reviews that are like that Tekzilla video would be amazing. Impressive! :thumbsup:

Haha, even Anand isn't immune from the rules.

Is it that hard to set a date, Anand, or is there something so inexplicably complex about database import/bug fixing that requires months between news updates and no indication of arrival date other than the dreadfully vague "soon"?

I think Rossman is Anand.
And also, FWIW, I did not understand a word that came out of his mouth -- why doesn't he just go work for Intel or AMD? Seems intelligent enough. Or is he getting some tradeoff by testing out Intel's technology?

I think adding videos would be a very interesting improvement to the site, something that you should think about start doing when the said site re-design gets completed. It should help get more traffic to the site, and plus you might be able to do what Tek did, and mention/thank sponsors, so you could pull in additional revenue for AT -- because we all know the forum use is probably killing your bandwidth, and no AT'ers ever click the ads

Pretty shitty memory you have there. Maybe that's why you got it for free.
