    Please join me in welcoming Tomcat57 as the newest moderator of the Panasonic Forum.

    I feel that Tomcat has been instrumental in helping to make this THE PLACE on the Internet for reliable info on Toughbooks as well as other general PC info and hacks. He is almost always the first to respond when someone needs help and always has a great attitude while doing it. While we are not generally known for flaming newbies... I think Alex shows extreme patience and always goes out of his way to help. I've sought his wisdom and guidance on so many issues I've lost count.

    While he won't be as busy as he would be if he was working the Dull Forum :eek: I'm sure he will stay busy enough... He always does! ;)

    So... Here's to you Mr. New Panasonic Forum Moderator Man....

    Thanks guys and girls ;)

    Teo…, I know we have to meet up some time

    Charlotte.. When I first joined the forum I spent hours and hours, reading posts that went back over one year or so
    There is posts here from some very knowledgeable and interesting people
    You really have to read through all the posts in a thread as the Toughbook enthusiasts here have their own sense of organization
    A thread might start out discussing an issue on a hard drive for a cf-28 and we end up talking about the battery capacity for a cf-18 lol

    Welcome to the trenches, Alex!

    As a many-times Moderator of numerous popular E-Groups over the years, I KNOW exactly what you're getting yourself into... :eek:

    *Crosses his monitor with hand and whispers a prayer for your soul* "Domini, Dominus, Dominos Delivers Deus Ex Machina..."

    *Airmails Alex one of his leftover cat-herding crooks with the built-in cattle-prod*

    I just can't seem to remember... there is SOMETHING I'm forgetting...

    Ahhh... YES!!! *Hastily adds Co2 pellet gun full of Prozac to the shipment for Alex* :wink:

    mnem
    *Starts pool on number of days it takes Alex to start using pellet gun on himself instead of the Group* :mask:

    Let me add my congrats also! Well deserved and a just reward for all you have done for everyone on this and other forums. As a moderator, you face new challenges, and in honor of those, I have included a new pic that you may want to consider for that avatar in the future when the responsibilities catch up!

    Alex, this is good!!... The same two moderators are moderating at my forums as well (Alex and Rick...) (Although Rick doesn't do much lol...)

    I would like to add that Alex has a lot of patience with everyone... Especially all that has been going on lately in the hidden forums over at Toughbooktalk. Alex even had enough patience to call me on the phone to talk about some things that needed to be straightened out. THANKS ALEX FOR ALL OF YOU DEDICATION AND HARD WORK!!!
