Most of my PC experience came from fiddling about on our x286 during the afternoon after school, breaking it and having to fix it before my dad got home from work!

Since then, an engineering degree (haven't ever used it) and experience in IT department (just about paid the bills) are all the 'formal' training I've had. But I can honestly say that all the useful things I've learnt, I've taught myself and learnt from others.

I'm not a huge fan of normal education. I want to be taught how to learn, not taught how to remember information.
