When in Rome
I see other people are introducing themselves here so i figured i may as well. My name is Gareth, my computer life began at a tender age on my fathers knee in front of a microbee Computer upgrades continued slowly as my father never wanted to embrace windows so we kept DOS going for a very long time.
I spent much of my early teenage years on BBSes as the other kids at school didnt seem to like me very much. As for amusing anecdotes at the age of about 10 i was on a kids TV quiz show and announced to the world (or all of Australia at least) my favourite game was Lesiure Suit Larry Embarassed the hell out of my Mum.. lmao |

A guy once told me that in Australia beer cans are sold in packs of 24 because the day has 24 hours. (Don't get mad at me, the guy's an Aussie himself. LOL)
