1960's - Used crayons to color in punch cards while waiting in the computer
room.
1976 - In high school we did some time sharing.
1979 - The college I attended thought they should start teaching this PC
stuff.
1983 - Finally owned my own PC
1988 - Thought I knew enough to own my own computer company
1995 - Started to tinker with this Linux thingy
2000 - Thought I knew enough to start my own review website dedicated to
Hardware and Linux (after all, assembled/built/repaired over 50,000 pieces
of computer equipment ... )
Present - Discovered that the smartest people tell you that they don't know
anything. It keeps the conversations much simpler :-)

on our website.
