The Download Pointe - The Low-Bandwidth Gamer's Download Haven on the Net


The Download Pointe


Well, this is it. I'm stopping work on this site. It's been long in the coming (as regular visitors can probably tell by the lack of updates for a year), but I simply can't maintain the hundreds of links as well as expand the site. Instead, I'm working on a new homepage, probably one with a more 'homely' feel. For all of you still chugging along at a 4 digit bit rate, never fear. The Download Pointe will still remain online, and if I eventually feel like it, I might just add a few new links now and then. Stay tuned for info on my new site.

What's New

Things have changed quite a bit in the download sections. Files are sorted alphabetically, instead of by file size. The division between low and high bandwidth downloads still remains though. The sound of music lingers in the air when you turn on the new Jukebox. Featuring a neater design and new music selections. Sign the new Guestbook, hosted by Bravenet Web Services. We want to hear what you think of this site. Pity it uses a few graphics, but they shouldn't be much burden on your modem.

Wow. When I started work on this site in mid-1997, it was simply an outlet for my passion for downloading (and my free time). I never quite expected the 40k+ hits, as well as the tons of visitor response, both positive and negative. Its a great feeling to know that your work is appreciated by people, both low-bandwidth and high-bandwidth users alike. Thanks for all your support through the years.
