    He's the reason I'm here, and still willing to help folks after all this time.....
    I can only imagine what he'd say about THIS avatar .

    Probably tell you to Google for one that doesn't scare little children.

    And he's still in my sig and on my web site (which Parcival will no doubt be able to explain the psychological significance of).

    Yeah, MDWatts rocked for sure. 50.000+ posts getting people on with Linux is quite the contribution.

    lol, what are the odds someone would ask a question which could be answered with a search in a thread about mdwatts.
    Check out the Unix/Linux Administration Program at Seneca College.
    Thanx to everyone that helped/helps me on this forum!

    My thoughts out to him as well. What a great person and one who is missed by many.

    What an awesome guy, he really showed us all what is was to really give of one's self, sometimes when I get tired of some the ridiculous questions I keep reading and hearing, I jus think of Mike and how many people he helpes selflessly, and how hacked he wouldv'e been with me to give up, when he didn't on us when we were newbies...

    I would recommend that we try and organise a date and time (GMT) that we can all take just one minute of our lives to remember Mike...
    Feel free to PM me for help
