Hi Marty,welcome to Techzonez.The fee's to join are on a sliding scale.The more you know,the more you pay,and the less you know,the lesser you pay.So you are new and your fee will be $0.However be aware that,as a member of Techzonez you will eventually know more than the average bear and like myself be continuously broke. Just joking Marty,no fee's just fun with computers and life.
