Yeah, I see I am REALLY in diapers... I was born in 1974... I was a self employed beekeeper for most of my adult life until just severeal years ago when I went to school for computers. I landed a pc janitor job while in school and progressed very fast until I landed a jr admin job and now admin... I like it but yes, I do have a LONG way to go...

Enjoy the journey, Grasshoppy! I remember as a young engineer when I read in a trade journal about a device called the Intel 4004. I realized that it was like the transistor, something that would profoundly change the world.

You know why they developed the microprocessor, don't you? It was to sell solid state memory! In order to develop a demand that would justify the scale they needed to justify the solid state memory, they needed many more computers than they could then build...hence, the micro-processor!
