Luck for me my dad purchase a new IBM PC for his office when I was in high school. So I had some knowledge with it. When i was a junior in a small college IBM Corp gave us 15 PC's for our business department and I was the only one who knew how to set them up so I got my feet wet in PC support at a very young age. The rest…
