* Hey everyone, I'm still alive as is this Wiki - and although I'm not putting all that much effort myself into making article edits, I'm still happily maintaining the site and it seems to be accumulating interesting content. A special thank-you goes to [[User:Neozeed|Neozeed]] for his tireless contributions. The wiki will be maintained, and backups are made of the content. -- [[User:Toresbe|Tore]] ([[User talk:Toresbe|talk]]) 15:04, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

* '''Vertical text''' - There are now two templates to produce vertical text (for example, in table entries): <nowiki>{{VerticalTextUp|</nowiki>''Text to go up''}} and <nowiki>{{VerticalTextDown|</nowiki>''Text to go down''}}. In tables, you may have to use 'rowspan="N" |' attributes on those entries to create long vertical boxes for them to go in.
  
* We've passed the 500 article mark, much in thanks to our consummate contributer [[User:Neozeed|Neozeed]]!  We've also become the top first or second result on Google for a number of terms. Good job, everyone! -- [[User:Lucky|Lucky]] 21:46, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

* Although the site has been neglected at times, and our two year anniversary went unmarked, we're still around! [[User:Toresbe|Toresbe]] has made user registration mandatory to deal with the large amount of spam we've been receiving. New templates have been created and more navigation boxes, articles on peripherals and systems have been added too.  Keep up the good work everyone, I'm especially proud of the [[:Category:Tutorials|tutorials we now have]] for SIMH! :) -- [[User:Lucky|Lucky]] 18 July 2009
