    Help from Matrox, Ant???

    I read a while ago in a thread that you pay for the server from your own pocket. I remember a figure of around 2000$ a year.

    Being the number 1 Matrox user/fan site on the net it would be a good investment from Matrox to help you out with some of the money. It's ain't much for a company with revenues like that.

    Maybe you already are getting help from "big M".

      If Matrox where to start kicking in funds, this would no longer be an "independant" site, free to post whatever news/rumors Ant wanted. Matrox PR would start trying to control what was posted, and demand any other content (files, etc) that they don't like be removed.

      This would be a BAD idea.

        I guess you're right there, Kruzin.

          I'm willing to pledge $10.00 to help Ant out with the cost just so we can keep this an independent site. Now if we can get 199 others of the over 8000 registered members here then....

            I'd go for 10 English pounds, if necessary
