Hello everyone. I enjoy tweaking computers and indepth discussions about them. I am a 48 year old Harley shop owner, so bear with me. I hope it will be a pleasant stay.

I been here for a while now but I just relize I never introduced myself. I am a 21 year old college student studying computer science. My goal is to program video games for a living. I love learning everything there is to know about computers both software and hardware. I have had a few jobs doing tech support and fixing computers but am moving away from doing that for money now and more into looking for programming jobs(c++, java, VB, webprogramming(xhtml/CSS, javacript, java aplletes, php, mysql)). I have enjoyed the knoweldge I have learned here so far and hope that I have given some knowlege out to people on the board.

Thank you and a late welcome to a forum i joined after you.
I will introduce myself seeing as i haven't introduced myself either!
I am a thirteen year old boy. I live in switzerland and come from canada and poland.
I go to an international school near geneva, and i am writing from there. I am not very experienced in computers. I know the code VRML and HTML (which doesn't mean i am good). I would like to learn C, C++, or C#.
I would like to have something to do with computers in my later job, or be either an archeologist or an architect

Well, I guess as long as we're doing late intros, I'll allow myself to introduce... myself. The name Yeti is a nickname from my undergrad (long story... involves excessive consumption of alcohol

). I'm a grad student majoring in mechanical engineering, specifically energy science. I guess I don't learn enough in school so I have to go and teach myself as much as I can about computers. Well, I hope I've been able to help some people in the time I've been here and can continue to do so.

I've always wondered why we were sent to a big building, where we are forced to sit in rooms for hours on end, and adults desperately try to get some information in our head.
