Official Welcome/Introduction Thread

Well I just stumbled upon this thread after making some posts here on CF. I'm really liking it so far, and have gotten into some really good conversations with a few of you allready.

I'm a Junior at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, TX and majoring in Criminal Justice. I live in College Station, TX (home of Texas A&M) and commute the 50 miles a day. It's for a girl, and yes it's worth it.

I'm into volkswagens hardcore, as well as computers.

System wise I have a

Macbook Core 2 duo with all the fixins

HP with Athlon 64 x2 5000+
2gigs DDR
500gb hdd
7900gs

Home built:
shuttle AN35n mobo
AMD Athlon XP 2800+
ATI Radeon 9800pro
2gigs ram

Shuttle XPC 1800+ oil cooled and shoved in my mini fridge.

other laptop is

Compal CL-56
Intel Pentium M 2.0
ATI Radeon 9700m
2 gigs ram

I'm big into computers, I work at a small computer repair shop in my town as well as a VW dealership as a tech. I hope I can add some interesting things to CF and look forward to hopefully gaming with some of you.
