I like working with my hands. I like making stuff, building, creating. My interest and skill in the computer sciences is hardware. It began when I was just a wee lad... (about 15)
Long story short.. My uncle had an older i386 that stopped working and gave me the task of fixing it... It was trial and error at that time as my resources were limited, but I, eventually, found the issue, fixed it and managed to get Windows 95 running on it. Since then I was my family's go-to computer guy...
As for my first computer... It was an Apple IIe that my Stepfather and Mother bought back in '82/'83 I used it until my stepdad stripped it for it's "gold" in the early '90s... My first PC was a Pentium Pro that I received as a used gift shortly after my son was born in 1999.
