02 Jan 2002 HAPPY NEW YEAR .. still got a headache .. but lets get back to work ... The memberspage wont be updated anymore (we have our own O B&O PHP-Server) Closed area as usaul, but everybody have there own private working space. BIG THANKS to dogger und Zhi. Send a mail to get your members and password .. Scotty beam me up.
22. Dec 2001 Sorry ... I had alot to do .. since i have been back home. But it is far too hot here to sit inside and there is alot of clubbing here (in Chile). I want be home for christmas. And i could not answer all the mails ... but next year .. I PROMISE ...
12 Nov 2001 Taking a trip to Miami (and maybe NY). Will be meeting FranktheBastard and his family. The news will be updated when i am back (will be back before christmas). Mike - ZeppClan - I3 are responsible for updates .. U can reach me through email , but not on MIRC or ICQ ...If is anyone wants to meet me (in the states). U now know where.
04 Nov 2001 We are listed on a few searchengines, but with poor results. (I hate Homestead for kicking us, but they still keep spamming me with there junkmail). Let get back to work.
25 Oct 2001 Jan has sent me a few pictures of the new Plasma Beovision (4 or 5) and the technical details. Now that what i call high-tech. Trade it on IRC :)
15 Oct 2001 Nope a spider has not going anything to do with spyware or with a virus is just a way the searchengines search the web.
09 Oct 2001 Zepp-Clan said that a majority of the spider don´t list freehosters. NOW WE HAVE A PROBLEM. A FINE PAGE BUT NO VISTORS .... f****** hell s***
06 Oct 2001 Have not noticed anything yet. We are not even listed in the small searchengines. I hope it worth all the work. I cannot even control how many people are visiting the pages, Zepp-Clan says he will have to work on that (it will only take a week ... just kidding ;-) ) If anybody sees our page listed ... send me an email ..its like waiting for christmas.
05 Oct 2001 Wow .. did not know that php and mysql is so powerfull. But the problem has not been solved. We need a freehoster that offers such a combination, but that going to take some time. Post the errors and mistakes to YOU - KNOW - WHO
03 Oct 2001 Zhi and Dogger are having problems with the pictures.To all, please don´t change the size of the pictures, when editing the page. The reorganisation of the page is taking up more and more time. Does anybody know a freehoster that offers php and mysql ? I´m online the who day tomorrow. (ICQ)
02 Oct 2001 Zepp-Clan will be working on the searchengines. He said that in about a week will be getting the first response. Thanks ... Special thanks to Xavier, Vennge24, Roger, I3ARI3ARA, MeneerWeer, MO)O)SE, and the rest ... for the biggest update ever.. please report mistakes and errors (got a hell a lot to correct)
28 Sep 2001 Jan (Denmark) is really concerned about the future of B&O. The internal revenue doesn´t seem to be that what is supposed to be. He also scared of the possible cut backs and lose of his job. Take a look at the stocks. Its hit rockbottom. Let just hope B&O makes it. I wonder if this has anything to do with there retailer problem. I just don´t understand what the B&O Corporation is doing. How the hell do they sell B&O appliances over there homepage ?
22 Sep 2001 I just cannot hear it anymore. I will not answer any more letters concerning any political problems. Its your problems, if you cannot tolerate other members .. you can leave if you want to. Please no more threats emails ...
15 Sep 2001 No, please don´t get us wrong .. We are an international homepage .. and I will not carry out some religious conflicts on this page.
14 Sep 2001 I have made a decision (and of the behalf of our other members). We will not put a ribbon on the page. This is a non-commercial and non-political homepage.
12 Sep 2001 Is it a dream, or has reality become really sick. Just don´t believe it. Here in chile we just don´t understand how such a thing could happen. (Its quiet a shock). I am in MIRC-Chat, would be glad if somebody would explain whats going on.
07 Sep 2001 HAPPY BIRTHDAY ... Jesus its been a long time (ok only 6 months, but it was a great time) THANKS and THANKS again .... 72 Members ... where would I be without you ...
04 Sep 2001 Members are complaining that the linklist is not alphabetical .. well Mike apologises .. he says Germany is written "Duetschland" in german and it begins with a "D" and thats why its at the top of the list. "Don´t worry, it is not a ranking ... sorry"
03 Sep 2001 The Update is online .... To all members well done .. and thanks alot ..
28 August 2001 Zepp-Clan and Mike will be mirroring the page. It´s in there hands now. Mike is complaining that the files are written in capital letters (Mike says this happens when one has win 2000 as OS, and the server is unix or lunix, it comes to a mismatch or error 404) Please don´t use win 2000, use linux or win 98 instead. Ask him for more information and details.
27 August 2001 Ok it took two days, but we got another problem, the new freehoster is far tooo slow. We got to look out for a new solution. Members any ideas?
25 August 2001 Ohno ooooohhh nnnnnoooo. Homestead has kicked us, they are not anymore a freehosters. Zepp-Clan will help us. Sorry the rest will be online tomorrow.
22 August 2001 It seems to be more work than i thought. The pictures "properties" have to be edited "alt-tags". Download the template .... (thnxs ... and don´t give up .. it is worth it ... learned alot over searchengines and how they work ... any questions ask me) ;-)
21 August 2001 Mike (Germany) has a friend Zepp-Clan (Germany), who will help us with the searchengines and new structuring of the page. Send the lastest update to Mike and he will give to Zepp-Clan (Clan means Zepp is in Counterstrike Clan) (some type of 3d ego shoot out game)
19 August 2001 I take that back ... B&O belongs to the high end hifis, which does not realy interest me .... I into it for the exclusive design and the beauty of objects
18 August 2001 People are asking me to start a collectors homepage for sony, panasonic, grundig, telefunken and other high fidelty (did no know that sony and panasonic belong to high fidelty) I don´t even think B&O belongs to high end hifis. Sorry .. i am just a b&o fan and only collect b&o. Asked a few members but nobody is willing to start a new collector pages; SORRY, but why don´t you start you own page .. it is just a bit of work.
16. August 2001 Nice offer or gesture, but the pages will only be hosted on freepages (On behalf of all our members, I would like to thank all the freehoster "GEOCITIES" , "NETSCAPE", "FREENET", "YAHOO", "PAGES4ALL", and the rest ... without you we would not exist)
15. August 2001

Jan (Denmark) says there has been a lawsuit in USA, where B&O lost. www.beoworld.com is still entitled to use "metatags" with productnames. But i don´t want to take the risk of been kicked.
1. www.beoworld.com is in usa, a different law system (as for example in Chile or Europe)
2. I cannot afford a lawyer
3. I don´t want to be kicked from the freehosters (although is already happened once without a reason)
4. and according to Jan (Denmark) we have not broken any international laws (yet).

14. August 2001 Ok sorry ... my fault ... i know it is confusing, but i have made a template ... contact me .. copy and paste that all it is. Mike (Germany) says we will get more traffic.
13. August 2001 Our Uploader Mike (Germany) say we aren´t listed in the majority of the searchengines (honestly i never noticed). All the pages have to be changed, that means they have to be filled with invisible "metatags". Ok members back to work ... the never ending story ... post your updates to Mike (no advertising and no changing the navigation structure)
09 August 2001 Should i come or shoud i go .. go come ... one of our first members is leaving the team FrankTheBastard (USA) ... he apologises, but he´s got a family to feed (its a boy, congratulation) and therefore no time for designing ( THANKS .. I will never forget, what you have done for us ... and hope your b&o collection will thrive) Welcome in the hall of fame.
06. August 2001 Good news ... we have got a new member from Holland (sorry Nederlands) MeneerWeer (Nederland). He has translated the whole page into dutch ... not bad.
05 August 2001

Jan (Denmark) and few members protested that the getting bombed with retailer problems. We have changed our policy, noone gets the list of memberemails and members won´t be given advice to any retailers. This is the last time that I metion it. "we admire b&o´s, we don´t sell them"
A list of names, fax-, telephonenumbers and adresses don´t and won´t exist. I only know the members by their emailadresses (nicknames) and a few icqnumbers. It is better that way ... so stop asking me.

04 August 2001 Please ... please stop bothering me with your retailer problems. I will not make a list of all frustrated retailers. Neither do i know a lawyer, who could help you (i am not european, and do not know what laws have been broken) And i´m sorry if you not gone to make it financialy or gone to go broke in next few months ... it just not my problem .. Contact you national B&O Official .. This is a Collectors Club and not a Retailers Club.
03 August 2001 Aaaarrghh .... The retailerslist has been changed completly after the majority of european retailers have one page, half - finished pages (error 404) or linked to the official B&O page
Especialy Germany, France, England, Austria and Switzerland. We only link to the orderpages of retailers and not to there entrypage. SORRY, but if your pages aren´t consistent. The page will only be updated once a month. :-((
28 July 2001 Sorry but retailerslinklist is not updated. Since the majority of the retailershomepages have been changed. I will have wait till this delevopement is over.
Please stop sending me new links ... and then changing or deleting your pages.
27 July 2001 Back to germany ... b&o is offering all retailers (with homepages) to post there homepage on their officialsite, but the snag is, only one page, and cost a bundle (around 400 US $ annually). I took a look at the official homepage and the retailerslist ... forget it (it is not been worth listed and very hard to find)
25 July 2001 According to Mike (Germany) and Dogger (Switzerland), that B&O has been threatining B&O retailers to take legal action against retailershomepage. Jan (Denmark) verifies the acquisation, but could not give any details, because the german B&O Vize-prasident is responsible. It sounds like the same thing is happening to europe as happened in america.
24 July 2001

TomCat (Japan) is responsible for detailed emails. He will be answering the technical emails. He apoligises for his bad english, but so should i.
Sorry for the incomplete update .... but here in chile we had a powerfailure last night (happens pretty often). Freezed my butt off because it mid-winter here. Will be fixed today.

23 July 2001 A few members have offered to host the pages, thanks; but no-thanks (nice gesture). We are a non comercial page and we don´t want to be posted on pages where a commercial aspect is envolved.
With over a 100 emails a day ... i cannot reply to all and this is the last time " I DON´T SELL OR SEND INFORMATION ABOUT B&O - PRODUCTS" Take a look at the retaillinks or the official homepage and ask them.
17 July 2001

Mike (Germany) is now responsible for uploading ..
Special thanks to Zhi (Hongkong), Mike (Germany), Gozilla (Canada), Xavier (France), Roger (England), Jan (Denmark) and all other members.
50 active members at the moment ... sorry if you are not listed, but i will update the list

16 July 2001 OK ... i have got a small problem .... i have only got a 56 kb modem .. and have to download all my emails .. please don´t send the pictures with the update. It took me 4 hours to download the emails. It will take me more than a day to upload the lastest update.
15 July 2001

My computer has crashed .. been about a week offline ... but its working now .. checked my emails and over 400 emails ... thanks (ok about 200 where just advertising or retailers )
But the bad news is i lost the last update ... please all members send me the lastest update (thnxs)
My AMD K2 300 Mhz 64 Mb and 1,2 Gb is not the fastest, but it still works.
Thanks to all members who collect catalogues and pictures ... please send them to Zhi (Hongkong, and not China).

10 July 2001 Amazing over 2000 visiters last month ... keep up the good works ..
06 July 2001 Jan (our b&o insider) has warned me ... b&o has been taken legal action against private b&o pages ... therefore all the members email and my icq-number have been banished from the page. I request all members who have the mailadresses and my icq-number not to give it to other people. Do not use Jans official b&o email (because he is scared of been fired)
25. June 2001 I got a lot of emails from retailers wanting to be on the retailer linklist ... sorry if you don´t have your own b&o page and i don´t get any positive response from your customers, then you are out. (I want take money for it either, althought i could use it) 8-)
20. June 2001 A few retailers are complaining that their pages have been copied. To all members editing the page ... don´t steal.Take the description and technical details from the official catalogues.
14. June 2001

8-( Please for all of you member editing the page ... please don´t use programs like Frontpage, Golive, NotObject Fusion .. because they change the source code and i have to correct them .. most of the pages are useless .... there is a nice prog called Phase5 (freeware) and dreamweaver (macromedia). Please don´t change the navigation ... and once again no advertising ... we are a none comercial club

06.June 2001 We are reorganizing the whole page structure ... yes we are going international ... after many requests from different people who cannot use the american / english specificatons, we have planned to translate the page in other languages. All specifications will be in the "iso" standard - no more pounds and inches .... if you have problems with the units ... you can convert them online ..
29 May 2001

Back online ... sorry , but after someone (do not want mention any names .. but a certain american retailer (who is having problems with the bang-olufsen-central organisation has kicked my homepage. Even thought he did not have the right to do it. The corouging emails from my members

14. April 2001 After a hell of alot of brainstorming and emailing .. we have a new design .. and a positive effect aswell ...
I heard that our old page could only to be navigated with m$ IE 5.0 and not with Netscape and Opera (something about hover-buttons), well I must say my HTML-knowlegde is not very good. But know take a look at the page ... not bad ... and if B&O does not like it ... (we have tried our best)
09. April 2001 Jan say the page has to be changed .. because B&O does not tolerate pages that don´t fit to their "corporate identity". No fancy colors and no linking to other pages. One "corporate design" .... which means a hell a lot to be done ... will need help.
03. April 2001 We have reached 30 active members. And we have a specail member "Jan" (Denmark). He is a b&o employee and is very excited about the homepage
21. March 2001 Changing the dateline ... Sorry for all you europeans thinking that i have posted the page into the future. Nope its just the way we write the date. Thanks to Roger (England) that there is a "iso" (international standard organisation) way of writing the date.
3 / 10 / 2001 Got my first email ... thank you Barf30 for you positive critic ... i know my english is not that good ... but trying to brush it up.Thanks you for the hint on building better homepages. I will try to correct the faulty pages and add aditional information.
