Age

47.

I started with an Apple IIc...then along came Bill Gates which forced me to start from scratch all over again..

Later on, I believe I was the first Rotarian in my district (3780: Quezon City, Philippines) to have an email address.

hi!

20, comp sci degree student....

first computer was an XT (something, cant remember i was about 6!) still got the case, its huge!

Biggest step for me was moving from 4 meg to 8 meg on my 386,
man could i play the best games then

anyone remember having to rewrite their config.sys and autoexec.bat just to squeeze the last bits of memory to play one game and then having to do it again just to do something else....

ahh the memories...
