Dealmac had one of the best forum communities I've ever run across. I was there pre-'99, but I have no idea how long before that. It could have been as early as sometime in '97, but I'm not really sure. I've still got one of the dealmac t-shirts they handed out at Macworld San Francisco one year.

Random memories: The Great Buy.com Hitachi Monitor Price Error (I got a $6.00 check out of that one), The Piano Wire Stalking Incident, ETNTGA, Woodchuck, POMTL, B&W laser printer, the various iterations of YouCan'tHandletheFrank, great Macworld keynote threads (Back when there really was "...just one more thing.", rants against that newfangled OS X user interface, The birth, life and death of CoreComputers.

Things grew unsettled and the milk curdled for good after 9/11 and that was that. I just clicked on the bookmark I have for the dealmac FAQ. That too is gone. :Confusedigh::
