 What other Discussion Forums do you use?
As I'm sure many of you that are in the PC support field like to use other information resources when you research a problem, I would also like to broaden my knowledgebase of discussion forums. The Windrivers forum is my primary source when I have a problem, but are there any other BIG TRAFFIC forums that you frequent in addition to this one? Let's hear 'em?

Don't forget about Newsgroups. Microsoft newsgroup (even public) is good to have handy although my Windrivers peers are quicker and offer suggestions even if they don't have an "exact" answer. MS MVPs tend to leave a subject blank if not absolute-still a good thing to keep handy though, lot of good experienced esp. software(obviously MS software) people in the NGs.

LOL Being a lowly high school student, I don't need much info... usually. I'm here because it's fun, y'all are real great, it's even great to be able to help someone out once in a while.
Other forums? Not a chance...

WinDrivers is the best. The moderators/owners maintain the board perfectly and the readers/posters are 99.999% helpful, insightful, and mature.
I read the boards on ls1 and ls1tech.com, the Wall Street Journal, NWfusion.com, and a few others. Without slamming other boards, WinDrives is the best.
