The joys of being the only computer literate person in your house

[Atomic Rooster]

I'm the do-it-all in this family. It's been that way since I was a kid. I've always liked taking things apart to see what made them work, then putting it all back together. We have 4 computers in this house. All have been built and maintained by me. My oldest son can pretty much figure out problems with his, and he also helps his friends with their problems.

Oh yeah, their is no 69 pin ram. Their is 72 pin ram (EDO Ram), however you wouldn't be able to find a 128MB stick of it.

I meant to say 168 pin or what ever it is... Its SDRAM I believe.

I just let my 3 little brothers break my Dad's computer then laugh when he wasn't clever enough to let me help him fix it.

Not a very nice thing to do.

A very childish, spoilt little brat type of thing to do really.
