   I had been using computers for years, mostly at university, but had also built   
   my first XT clone not long before.  It was BBSing and networking that got my   
   interest back in computers after it had waned.  I long had an interest in   
   communication (long story!), initially, the easier side - technology, but   
   broadening as I get older into how people actually communicate.
