Well HT did create WB in between and when the management started to suck in WB he created AH I. People who knew the creator of WB can't do wrong tried AH and have since been HT's crackwh*res. :D

GE isn't to far off. As to the creation of WB and I.C.I.

But how AH started,

Left IEN in november of 98 do to a bad dissision made a 2nd time by Wild Bill.  (Had to do with Fighter Ops) Pyro decided to quit the same day also.
BTW Those bad discissions is what has alowed us to take over the online flight sim market.

Had no idea what I wanted to do next, so took a 3 day break.

Had always wanted to try create a 3d interface so on monday I started laying the gui frame work that is now the clip board.

Got that frame work running pyro and still trying to figure out what we wanted to do next. Ended up saying well hey, you got any better idea then another flight sim.

6 months later I have frame work complete for AH , and I incorperate HiTech Creations and higher Pyro,Natedog,Superfly, Yankie and Ronni.

July 99 launch web sight anouncing AH.

Sept 99 launch the beta of AH.

Jan 2000 release AH 1.0 and start to charge for it.

You, sir, need to stop judging others by your own personal standards.
ie: you perceieve any enthusiast as a "crackwh*re" obviously because you are one yourself and that is your yardstick or personal standard that you apply to others.

After reading all the spelling errors, I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that you were not a code writer, correct?

To Mr (and I use the term *very* loosely)Ripley:

Frankly, the humor in labeling thousands of people 'crackwh*res' because they enjoy a game is beyond me... thank God.

I guess I have a bit more vocabulary to draw on, and tis easier to draw a chuckle from those I regard as 'friends' by the use thereof.

I don't want to know what a real belly laugh for you is.
