Today midrange.com is 11 years old.
Of course the concept behind midrange.com is even older … the domain was registered 11 years ago.
I find it quite amazing that something that started as a 286/8 Compaq Portable II with a 2400 baud modem could have grown into something as useful as this.
Thanks David for building such a great community!
David,
If anyone wonders why you are considered competetion to the rest of the iSeries sites, one only need to look at the content, community and resources. Through the participation of some very talented people (opinionated, I’ll give you), this site has become one of the best resources for AS/400, iSeries and now i5 people of all flavors. If the marketing people at IBM followed this site like they should, they wouldn’t be asking as many silly questions.
Congrats on 11 years and the “FORMER” midrange.com machine is humming along as it should be.
Congrats !!. I still remember my first post 5 yrs before when I was relatively new to AS400 and amazed by the responses and the gentle community and I still I remember when midrange was down for couple of days and how people were very much worried and how happy when it came back online- it is definitely a wonderful resource to everybody and thanks to david :-). Now it is great to see IMHO as blog site
