by , 11:00 PM EDT, June 17th, 2002
The Mac Web is an incredible place, and is something of which TMO is very proud to be a member. During the weekend, and since Rodney O. Lain's death was announced this morning, many Mac Web sites have published eulogies, tributes, and mentions of Rodney. Several Mac forums, in addition to our own, have also started discussions about Rodney, and we have put together a list of all of these mentions.
If you know of an article or other mention of Rodney not listed, please let me know, and we will add it to this list. Note that additions to the list are included at the end of each list with an *.
