So I had not handled a computer at all, except for a half-year high school course about business applications using AppleWorks with a 5.25" on a Apple2e.

In 1996 I bought this OEM PC (Pentium 90) for $1050 and run out and sign up for AOL. That's what everyone else has. Right? So I get somewhere in their "community" that talks about having your own personal web page without any knowledge of HTML.

So I, being the DIY rebel I am, said, "To heck with that! I'm going to learn this HTML stuff! Ha!" So I got [u]Using HTML 3.2[/u] at the college book store and I haven't been the same since. My boyfriend, who is now my husband, would get me web design jobs while working desk help for the local ISP.

Yes, he still gets me work while out there doing computer consulting. I don't mind as long as he doesn't try to choose the CMS himself.
