Hello to everyone...   those of you who have been with us from the beginning, those of 
you who have joined us along the way and even new subscribers.

If you are new to PCSOFT or Freepctech.com, I am Bob Wright, the founder and Senior 
Partner of The NoSpin Group, Inc., the non-profit corporation that has provided all the 
services you find on our websites and mailing lists: PCBUILD & PCSOFT, for the last 14 years.

First: Let me assure you that The NoSpin Group's web site http://freepctech.com is back 
online.  We are working to finish access to all the pages and download files.  We will be 
adding many new articles, guides and files to be of greatest help when you need it.  So, 
please visit the site to see if there is anything we have online can be helpful to you.

Second: We will have http://NoSpin.com running smoothly within a few days along with it's 
popular bulletin board.   The bad news is our hosting computer for NoSpin.com has lost 
all of the database for the old bulletin board.  It will be starting from scratch.  The 
good news is that we have updated to a new server and expect no problems.

Third: I need to announce some major changes to our senior staff.  Drew Dunn has retired 
after a long run of 10 years as my partner in The NoSpin Group.  He will be missed.  But, 
one of our longest serving Moderators, Mark Rode, will now serve as the second ListOwner 
to PCBUILD and PCSOFT mailing lists, as well a Senior Partner in The NoSpin Group, 
Inc.  Visit http://freepctech.com/staff.shtml for information about Senior staff and the 
Moderators.

Finally, as an explanation of the last five week's of our web sites http://freepctech.com 
and http://nospin.com going off line...   our server went bad, along with some real 
issues with our IT support.  Needless to say, between myself and my son, we were able to 
recode our sites.  We rebuilt the mySQL database, repaired all of the PHP code and right 
now we are reworking the 'server side includes.'  The important part is we are back and 
hopefully soon to be up-to-date with the latest PC information online.

Thanks to all of you for making PCSOFT and http://freepctech.com such an ongoing success.
