Moving on.. (166 Comments) (link)

Well, it's with sadness tinged with relief that I write this message. As you know, I was recently injured in a motorcycle crash. This has meant I've had to spend a lot of time away from the PC - which has changed my perspective on life a little. Bearing this in mind, and with my increasing lack of motivation towards OCAU and PC's in general, I've decided to move my personal focus away from the PC hardware scene indefinitely.

OCAU must go on, though, so I have discussed a few options with the Admins. None were willing to take the site on entirely themselves, so after some debate I have decided to sell the site in its entirety to Cameron Wilmot of TweakTown fame. I've always admired TweakTown's commitment to excellence, accuracy and journalistic integrity and I feel they are the right people to take OCAU to the next level.

OCAU's savings and the acquisition payment from TweakTown will allow me to take a short break to recuperate, then pursue my two dreams of writing a romance novel and progressing in my motorcycle racing career. I may still occasionally write for magazines such as APC or Atomic.

It's been a great 4 years since I started OCAU and in that time we have produced a thriving community with many thousand regular members and a website serving many millions of pages per month. Many thanks to the community that made us what we were, the many organisations that have advertised with or sponsored OCAU and to the Admin team that have kept the site running smoothly to date. I believe Cameron's goal is to integrate OCAU into TweakTown, but I'm sure he'll advise his plans on this page in the coming days.

All the best..

[Update: April fool! Sorry. :) ]
