    We lost Oppainter yesterday

    My good friend Erik Kronies passed away in his sleep yesterday.

    I have known the guy personally for over two decades and at one time was the leader in 3DMark.

    Your name will live on here.

    There are never adequate words. I'm sorry for your loss. My condolences to everyone he touched. OPPAINTER was a legend when I started haunting this place in 2004. Rest in peace.

    IMHO Waste is a computer going to a landfill having done actual computations less than 90% of it's life. 90% of the computers powered on right now are idle or powered off; what a waste! [/B]

    Is it a coincidence that your wifes pc is called Uranus?

    OPP was one of the first names I remember when getting into this hobby.

    The scene back then was so different...there were some guys that just seemed like magicians or wizards to me.

    RIP OPP
