Missing Mike ...

Yesterday was the last day of CeBIT 2001, the world's largest computer show, held in Hannover, Germany. I have to apologize for the fact that CeBIT has slowed things down a bit, but by now the 5-man CeBIT team of Tom's Hardware has finally returned and is getting back to its usual business.

For me personally, CeBIT is not just a newsworthy event, but most useful to keep up highly important contacts and to meet colleagues from all over the world. Unfortunately, one highly respected journalist was sadly missed this year. Forced by his medical condition, our colleague Mike Magee from The Register was absent from CeBIT for the fist time in 15 years. Mike is recuperating from a heart attack and awaiting a triple bypass operation. I would like to take the opportunity to send Mike my warmest regards and sympathies, joined by the vast majority of IT journalists all around the globe. We have missed you dearly and hope to have you back soon.

That's how we remember Mike. Jolly, irreverent, cynical, occasionally caustic, and permanently smoking. Well, Mike, you better give up those fags*!

Some of you might be aware of the fact that there has been a recent disagreement between Mike and The Register and in the heat of the moment Mike started his own website, The Inquirer. I would like to assure you however, that both parties are currently working on a friendly solution and I personally hope to see Mike back at friendly terms with The Register soon. There is nothing more to tell about this situation. It's a personal issue between Mike and The Register, which doesn't belong into public.
