Hi Everybody,

First Congrates to Fedric and Ravi.

I was surprised to find my name at no -5. But I am happy I could help others. I am new to this feild and working very hard to make it big, let's see.

Hey DAN

Don't you have consolation prizes?
Just kidding.

ONE thing is tru this forum rocks.

Thanks everybody.

[V. V. Ravi Kumar_1]

Hi All,
First of all Congrats to Frederic.
Thanks to all. I was surprised when i saw Dan's mail about results. Thanks to Dan and team.
Iam from Hyderabad, India, working in CMC Ltd, as System Administrtor. I have 17 months experience in HP-UX administration. From my place Internet Access is very slow. But I was well supported by my manager Mr. Murthy and by my team mates. I learned HP-UX from my manager, also i came to know about forums through him only. Thanks to all of them.
I learned lot of things from this great Forum and reproduced it to others. Thanks to many experts like JRF, Clay, Stefan, Sanjay, Patrick, Pete, Sridhar, Procura, Harry, McNamara, Manoj, Bill, Tully, Yogeraj and many others. I hope that i will continue with Forums through out my life.
Once again thanks to one and all.

Ah, the Jornada was an OK prize, an Ipaq would have been better.

Congrats to all.

[Nick Wickens]

Congratulations and well done.

Ignore the comments about the Jornada's. They were and still are great units especially for support because of the enormous life you get on a battery charge compared to a laptop and if you are lucky enough to get one of the 720 or 728's then the keyboard makes it much easier than learning strange swirly character recognition strokes.

Its a shame that HP have announced that the Jornada 728 is likely to be the last keyboard based pocket PC.

[NightHawk_1]

Way to go, I know you all have helped me a lot.

[Frederic Zeller]

Hi all

I wish to thank :

- Dan and the entire ITRC Forum Team for their great job

- HP, of course, for the coming Jordana ...

- All the forum members that found my answer(s) of any help

- The rest of the forum members that made me search for answers ... ( A great way to learn )

A congratulations to V.V. Ravi Kumar and everyone that participated in that contest.

I guess I was lucky enough to start being active in this forum in the right period of time ( mi-june ) and ( I'm not sure my boss would call this luck ... ) to have some free time during this summer

I'm just back from vacations in Italy and will return to the forum "soon"

Fred

Enjoy the jornada PC and try loading hp-ux on it ;-(
