    Yeah, well i've worked on some of it indirectly - the main database layer and a few other things (I think) were stolen by bit-tech to power the latest version of the site, but generally i've had zero to do with bit-tech, as i said, since '05 :)

    it's safe to say bit-tech won't be going far for new offices, a few miles at the very most :p

    I'll rent bit my bedroom for donations of graphics cards every once in a while :p

    Grats to TR for being picked up by a larger company, glad that it doesn't affect Bit though in some respects. I love it just the way it is and I feel that any take over by a larger company that wasn't modding orientated would only ruin the feel anyway ;)

    Come to Oxfordshire, plenty of BTers live here and around here. Good transport links to London/Bristol and other major cities.

    Hopefully with the acquisition by IPC Media, there won't be as many spelling mistakes at TR. I can't remember the last article I read that didn't have at last one mistake.

    Wow, quite big news.
    I really hope it doesn't have a negative impact upon B-T, good luck with the future to both TR and B-T.

    As long as the community stays behind us, nothing on Bit-tech is going to change. I may be new, but I know that much!

    Move to Birmingham, then you could be near that new-ish LAN center!

    How did you decide who reviewed what before? There must have been a reasonable amount of overlap.
