I guess there is no right answer....

as for me, i have been using computers for 15 years or so (im only 29 now ) tho, i have been using them regularly for only the last 5 or 6 years. I am familair with both Windows and Mac platforms (I use mostly Macs, as i will do my professional design work only on a Mac. period.) But, I am very comfortable with Windows.

In terms of software, I think i may have made myself sound like more of a beginnner than i actually am. In terms of building a PC from scratch, I am a COMPLETE newbie. =) That was where the advice was needed.

But, we all know that a Mac wont do everything a PC will, and vice-versa (yes, its true..PC's cannot do EVERYHING...try finding a better HTML editor than BBEdit, i dare you (and before you say HomeSite, it sucks)), so i decided it was time to get myself a home PC, and what better way than to build it myself.

So, there is my unauthorized computing biography. =)
