hi together i also think that the thread title isnt right couse computer nerds like us where passive in there childhood and youth while the other kids played football (i mean soccer sry iam from germany and we play fußball.

Sure its fine to have these skills in our digital world. I allways say that its good to have one eye while the others are blind..

So my first "computer" was a kc87 *iam born in gdr* after the wall was down i was haveing a 128d comodore. But to take a real look at Programming (beside basic) i was need a lot more Time. This came with my interest for the Internet. From HTML to PHP a little Java, Python and so one. When i was at the University i learnd a lot about Databases too.

After my Master and some Jobs i work today as Admin in another University. I guess this is the Livecycle of a Computer Nerd *lol*
