Hey Gang!, Just a little bit about me Options

[Aaron_B]

Well, I'm a 23 year old nerd who likes to write stories (mainly fanfiction) and chat in the SpyWareInfo chatroom. I live in St. Cloud, Minnesotah (ya shure, ya betcha) where I've lived all my life. I'm kinda boring sometimes, but other times funny and fun to be around.
I maintain two websites on our IBM:
My personal site
SCSU Pagan Alliance
Both sites get updated now and then when I think of something to post on them or thing of something to add to them.

I've been using computers since like first or second grade (the good ol' Apple IIGs... 5.25" floppy drives and the classic 640k RAM... nothing like swapping disks in the middle of a game) and the very early days of Windoze. I once repaired one of the early CD-ROMs (the ones where the CD was contained in a little plastic case and the drive swallowed the cartridge and played whatever was on the disc at a mere 1x) when my old elementary school got it's first CD-ROM drive and some dust got on the laser's lens and I happened to gently wipe the lens off with my t-shirt and it worked fine afterwards (dumb luck).

I'm unemployed and looking for work before dad quits his job at Redneck Trailer Supplies.

And... if anyone wants to see what I look like,
me again
and
me


Oh... and as for what I've had for computers over the years...

Original computer:
IBM PS/2 (386 processor, like a measley 8mB RAM, 512kB VideoRAM, no harddrive, no CD-ROM, a single 3.5-inch drive, 12-inch 16-color screen, keyboard)
Got bored with that one and couldn't install anything else into it, so it got stuck in the junk pile... eventually ended up with these (this is current):
IBM Aptiva E2N-2153 (stock: 266MHz AMD K6/2, 32mB RAM, 2mB VideoRAM, 3.74gB harddrive, 32x CD-ROM, 3.5-inch drive, 56k dial-up, 2 USB1.1 ports, Win98 OEM custom built for IBM... upgraded to: 500MHz AMD K6/2, 128mB SDRAM RAM, 2mB VideoRAM, 8gB & 40gB harddrives, 32x CD-ROM, 3.5-inch drive, 56k dial-up, 10/100 Network Interface Card, 2 USB1.1 ports, Windows 2000 Pro & Windows XP Pro Corporate Edition
Toshiba Satellite Pro 400CDT: 75MHz Pentium 1, 40mB RAM, 1mB VideoRAM, 2gB harddrive, 8x CD-ROM (swappable with the floppy... or the floppy can remain in it's little caddy thing that uses a wierd little specialized plug), Win98SE, 802.11B wireless network card
Packard Bell Multimedia R501: (unsure of original configuration, but currently my webserver and this is the current configuration of it) 200MHz Pentium 1 with MMX, 128mB EDO RAM, 2mB VideoRAM, 4gB & 2gB & 8gB harddrives, 8x (or is it 12x or 16x... not sure) CD-ROM, 3.5-inch drive, Windows 2000 Pro, 10/100 Network Interface Card
