This question came up the other day and the answers ranged from super simple to incredibly bizarre.

So tell me: How did you get your name/handle?

Mine came from a long time friend in the music biz named Ron "C"
His album in 1995 was titled Raw4Life. I went with that for a while then it just got shortened to raw. :thumbsup:

Researching Microsoft Knowledge Bases, product support Information, and reading countless forum posts left me in a fog. (Which occasionly clears, only to settle in again 'bout the time I wake up.) :thumbsup:
