A Look at My IT History - My first computer

Today is a peek into my IT career history, this time with my family's first computer...

My family purchased our first computer when I was 10 years old. The computer was an Intel 486 DX2 with a 540 MB hard drive. The cost of the computer was more than $3000. Prior to just a few days ago, as time has gone on, I looked back on that computer purchase and thought to myself and out loud, ?Wow, what a bad investment!? Now, I am finally aware of how wrong that thought truly is. Without that computer, I probably would not be where I am today as an IT Professional. That computer purchase may eventually have a return on investment that is equal to my entire college education.
