I'm 21 :D

Been using computers for a long time... when did the IBM PC Jr. come out? anyways.. I'm just about to build my first WC setup. ( I have the WC parts, now I just need the new computer... just waiting to finish modding my case.)

53. EE currently doing ASIC design.

25. Steel and sheet metal worker. Field crew leader. Computers are my hobbie as is building water blocks with my little CNC.

Me and Fixittt have slowly been working on my site at www.custom-cooling.com . Havn't had a lot of time lately to keep up with things as work has been busy busy busy.....

very very slowly. almost going backwards. But hey, there is a site there, with some good info.

Really good info if you want to have a block made, and you are thinking about going to a machine shop to do it. Check it out.

Finally got a stable forum running to, although I lost all my members from the old one and had to start from scratch.:cry:

Thanks for the kind words!! Well it's more of "applied psychology" as in screwing with people's minds to alter their behavior to do something we want.

20 - gonna hit the big 21 in September.

I'm studying Computer and Electrical Engineering, right now I'm working as a Co-op for Rockwell Automation. I work with a team of engineers who develop industrial computers (everything from scratch). Today I witnessed see my first product testing, Called "Shock And Vib", which is where we take our product and subject it to different G values (saw 50G's today and we broke the machine) with up to one inch in different directions.

Zoo 21 in September; congrats. I haven't been 21 for 30 years.

I am 51 now. Built my first computer last summer. Watercooled it this spring.

Watercooling was simple, BIOS, Operating Systems, and Drivers still frustrate the crap out of me.

I have been an Electrical Contractior, self employed, since 1977. That's 25 years in business on September 1st; Zoo was a -4 then!

Anyway I find this stuff fun and interesting. And there is no heavy lifting, rain, snow, or mud to deal with! Best of all never again at the mercy of Dell or Compaq. :D

Better late than never :)

24 till December. Working with computers since '93. (Had Apple IIe when they first came out but never got into the guts of it)

Finnally got A+ certified 2 weeks ago (after waiting for almost 6 years)

Currently work for a School District as a Digital High School Technician (long winded name to mean High School Computer Guru :) )

Attended CalPoly University for 2 1/2 years and now just working on getting certificates.

Been OC since '96 and water cooling since '99.

Computers are my job, hobby, and toys :)

i'm 15. Our family got a 75mhz, 8mb ram compaq when i was 8 or 9(cant really remember). built my first one when i was 10, working on my first watercooling rig right now.

well, as often as I am around. . . . . I am the big 20. heh

I am working on a EE major, and possibly a PHD after that in the fun subject so I can go work at AMD. Currently job searching but I was working at Symantec doing software testing and Lab management. Got into Watercooling because I was bored and I wanted something to do. Is that a bad thing? heh

im 19 and studying to be a mechanical engineer, i like to build stuff, started with bikes, then r/c cars, then gocarts, then computers, ocing/watercooling is my latest passion though

18- Senor in HS- also was MSCE Windows nt 4.0 until they droped the damn section----- Going for MSCE full traning----

18 in october, only started w/ heavy oc/cooling in 2k

19 now first computer was a 286 with 4mb currently work as the only IT person in 4-H at umass i have to deal with 100 end users none of the computer literite in any way currently watercooled started playing with computers when i was like 9 or something cant rember a+ MCP and i would be MCSE if i would take the last 2 damn design exams er

OCing since '98, water-cooling since '00, phase changing this year.

I'm a Power Lineman, although this is my 3rd trade.

I'm still a Hot Stank when it comes to cooling, even though i've been reading about it for a year :(

22 on the 16th of october
Been in computer since the 386, started building from scratch since the 486 dx2.

forgot to add
MCSE since june 2000 (NT4) and MCP (4 core exam) since december 01. Will complete my mcse soon

34, Engineer (materials) for Shock Physics @ Washington State University. Been water-pelt-phase change cooling since the original 300a, overclocking since the P166, using computers since mid-1970's when I was a kid (dad is a college professor.) All the computer and cooling related stuff has just been a hobby for me.

I've been lurking for a while, really enjoying the quality of projects that are going on here. Might have to add some of my own stuff if I can get around to it.

Hey Joe, how's things going? Haven't talked with you in quite a while.

19... I guess that means I have 16 years of computer experience. :rolleyes:


Education education education... I'm taking a break from it all and will return to the evil that is education next year.

eh 19 here too.

N8 My Man!!!! I was going to email you and see what was up!

I would love to have someone with your cooling experience on the site! Between you and FrostyFox, thats where I got much of my cooling ideas and drive from.

Nice to see you around here bud! and I am doing great.. got a good job, solid car, and a nice apt. :) Now all I need to do is get a kitchen table so I can start testing stuff again. :rolleyes:

Joe

I am 19 and have found my soul mate... we're getting married feb. 15. 2003... I am a computer technician for UMass... all satelite offices...

16 here, i was 15 when i registered. I've been into comps for a while, i remember using an OS called D-tree because this was b4 windows 3.1 came out:) . I got most of my comp knowledge by tinkering with old POS's. I overclocked the first comp i "owned" from 100mhz to 133 "WOW". I built my first comp when i was 12 and have been constantly modding it since. its more of an obsession than a hobby now...:D

soon to be 20

here's the place I study and live:

http://www.wendelsberg.fhsk.se/wendelsbergsommar.jpg

In Amherst? I've got family there!

I feel old with all these teens and twenties around!

42, MCSE, almost a BS. in Computer Science (surprise!), doing Tech Support and R & D (mostly in Linux) in Stamping/Machining Systems for a "large automotive manufacturer":D as a contractor. Still not sure what I want to do when I grow up! I guess I'll worry about that when I get there.
