Hi All,
I have now left Orcon to seek out other challenges so I'm afraid the task of support via this channel will fall to others.

Many thanks for your support, questions, queries, ideas and suggestions (some of them quite frank :-) ), over the couple of years I have been active here, it has all been much appreciated by myself and has brought another perspective on the Orcon customer experience to the table.

Best wishes

Simon

Regards FireEngine

As others have said thanks for your efforts int he GZ community and hope to see you around still!

I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup.

Thanks for the kind comments everyone, yes I'll still be around (and at the meet on 27th), just not in an "official" capacity...
