New to the gene pool

Post by Sowser »

Hey everyone my name’s Shane. I’ve been lurking around here for quite awhile now and have just gotten around to using the forums. My first computer was an Atari 800 XL and I’ve been hooked ever since. I started upgrading computers when I was pretty young (my first upgrade was replacing my parent’s original HP Vectra 50 MB hard drive with a 144 MB hard drive which I believe cost about $350 at the time!) and now in addition to working as an electrician I still do the occasional computer trouble shooting/referb job. I’m glad to be aboard and look forward to giving and getting quality input!
Deep in the human unconscious is a pervasive need for a logical universe that makes sense. But the real universe is always one step beyond logic.
