Yes and No
According to a senior member of the Google team, a site with no incoming links once submitted to Google will be indexed and rated according to its relevence to each particular search query subject to the normal Google PR weighting.
Without incoming links, this would be an "Orpaned Site" and the only PR rating for each individual page would be generated by links internaly from other pages within the site. In other words an extremely low PR and a handicapped performance as a result.
Incoming links are required to achieve any sort of useful positioning return in Google because of the PR weighting factor unless the site is competing in a specialised field with little serious competition.

I could go on and on and on ...............but I won't. Heres a couple of starters.
The one thing always emphasised by Google execs is be sensible and don't do anything you would not like if you were a Google Cop.
Don't try to decieve a Search Engine by showing the S/E something within the body tag that the visitor cannot see.
In other words don't take the p***
Another important thing to keep in mind is if you steal an inch today and gain an edge, when (not if) the algo is tweaked that inch you stole will lose you a mile.

Very nicely said smeagain! Links are absolutly vital for PR. I have a 6/10 site that I only submitted a few times but now has 167 backword links. Now the site is loaded with rich content but when it first started moving up the PR ladder it was a skeleton with cheap prices. The cheap deals brought links, the links brought PR.
Backwords links are not required to be indexed. Need proof? I have a site dedicated to travel stories that I do not spend any time on. I get a few link request here and there but never do them because of time constraints. Up until about a month ago the site had no backword links at all but I still get about 50 hits a day from Google. Content did it for me in this case. 50 a day is chump change but hey! The Adsense for that site picks up a few extra dollars (quid) with no extra work needed. Rich content and strategic optimisation can make all the difference in the world. Now if I could just find time to work on the PR I would have another high traffic site on my hands. Life goes on...

Links are vital for PR but "Position" is what brings traffic.
Position can be achieved without obsessively worshipping PR.
Time spent creating quality Content is often more productive than the same amount of time pursuing inbound links and watching the little green bar.
Try disabling the Google PR indicator for a month and suddenly you will find you've got a few extra free hours. Use these extra hours to create "Quality Content" and you might be surprised at the rewards.

Thanks for the welcome Temi.
What were you doing on the forum that early or should it be that late.
I hope to visit more frequently now there is some activity and hopefully I can pick up some useful snippets.
