Hello everyone. I do not really know how to start this off so I guess I will just dive in. About two or three years ago in eighth grade I had a great idea. I had wanted to build a computer. I was so excited I dove in without any computer building knowledge at all. I bought part after part, learning more and more after each purchase. This, however, was not an ideal way to learn, as I soon noticed, and I finally started doing some hardcore research. And by research I mean anything my little mind could comprehend about the world beyond the the facade that us consumers have created. Instead of just standing there with shock and aw, I thought outside of the box, and researched things I did not comprehend. These were things like RAM and HDD. Of course I do not, consider that even breaking the surface of the massive database of information I need to know to even come close lets say Linus. Speaking of Linus, I never even knew about Linus and his helpful tech tips back then. Actually to be honest I did not even know he existed up until six weeks ago. However, when I did see the videos, it was like heaven wrapped in chocolate. Even though I was still limited to a few measly vocab words up to that point, it sparked interest in me. Linus' videos made me think of some kind of future of where I could be in a few years. I mean although my mind is still muddy between me becoming a programmer for video games or doing something along the lines of computer hardware, things got a little bit more clear. My love for computer and video games exceeds my knowledge of them, and I believe will forever be so. The more I learn of them, the more I love them. So although I am one of the newest members I would like to celebrate a great moment in Linus', his crew, and the communities life. Also it does not really matter to me whether I get one of the prizes (although it would be rad and I would never forget about it). All I ask is that I get to see the cool finish on that sweet gaming rig and if possible to see how happy the winners are with their prizes. P.S. Sorry for how sloppy my paragraph might be, I am a messy thinker when I get mushy about my past and relate it to present things. TheNotSoAverageGamer
