An old school geek, modern and retro PC enthusiast, and family man! Born into the Atari generation, a product of the 70's, a child of the 80's, and a geek for life. I have had a computer at my fingertips since 1981 and built my first system in the early 90's. Since then I have done more builds than I can count, both personally and professionally. That new hardware smell, powering on and booting up for the first time, seeing a successful POST, for me these are all exciting feelings! A geek and loving it for over 30 years. AMD power user since 1996! Proud member of the Newegg Eggxpert Review program since 2012!
