Here's the lowdown on my computer....I'm driving an AMD K62-400 processor around the Internet. My computer has 64 Meg of SDram (10 nanoseconds) and 6.4 Gig of HD. I always have a quick computer for analyzing chess games. My grand plan to build a computer crapped out in a big way. I did everything right except for one thing...static discharge zapped the motherboard before I was done, and naturally I couldn't get the money back. That sucks. Anyway, I'm not a computer guru, but I've learned how to do the more basic stuff, such as upgrading RAM, harddrives, soundcards, modems, etc. If you have any basic questions about these, feel free to holler at me.

My computer and myself know that what counts in this business is not the programs we write, the music from our speakers, nor the graphics we make. We know that it is the sales that count. We will sell ...
My computer is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its OS, its speed, its cards, its bus, its monitor, and its keyboard. I will ever guard it against the ravages of obsolesence and food spills. I will keep my computer clean and ready, even though I may not be clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will ...
Before the binary truths I swear this creed. My computer and myself are the coders of my domain. We are the masters of our bugs. We are the saviors from the crash.
So be it, until victory is ours and there is no piracy, but free software.
