Let me add my voice to the chorus - welcome back, Da Penguin!
As for the discussion Cory started, I think it's fine that folks are interested in newer hardware. This is still a very retro-oriented site. Consider:
- The "moment of birth" of 68kmla, according to the FAQ, was August '01, and it involved the liberation of a Color Classic. Well, the slot-loading iMac G3, and the Sawtooth Power Mac G4, are as old today as the Color Classic was back in '01.
So considering that, and considering that the Apple I/II/III and Compact Mac forums (among others) are still pretty active here, I'd say this site is still going strong.
Finally, all communities change over time, and so even if this one continues to branch out to PC hardware, post-68k Mac liberating, and so on, the name 68kMLA has achieved larger connotations beyond just 68k machines, and I think there'd never be any need to change it.
Best,
Matt
