I had always been around computers when I was a kid in the early 80's. Our grade school North of Seattle (That is why Seattle is one of the leading places for Hi-Tech) has a computer class with Franklin computers. At the house we had a Texas Instrument and a Commodore 64, I was always interested in Games and applications in the computers, but hate coding. It wasn't until 1993 when I first bought my very own computer at Sears and it was a Packard Bell, that computer was a piece of shit, they eventually went out of business not long after.
I am using Internet since year 2004. First 1-2 years just browsing and enjoying surfing, nothing else DON.
It was about 1997-2000 My bro bought it, I didn't knew how to use it.Then I start playing games on it, then start learning and learning and today, I will be making $1000/day by next month !!
I first got on-line (besides crap like Prodigy or AOL) in 1996 using IBM's "limited" internet service that was part of OS/2 Warp. I found nothing really to do. Then I got back on-line in 1997 with an unlimited dial up account and immediately set up a web site which I still run to this day (altho it's undergone extenisve changes but some of the original members are still with me).
I discovered it in 1994, we had one computer in the office with it on, I wish I had registered lots of domains back then
