I'm 29 years old and graduated from Virginia Tech in 1995. I
moved out to California when Intel hired me. I got fed up with the
big corporate entity and left for VM Labs in June, 1998. I can't
complain too much about Intel though as I did meet my lovely wife
there. She was a circuit designer and I was a logic designer on
Merced. She was smarter and got out a lot sooner than me.
Circumstances forced me to leave VML in 2001 and now I'm at NVIDIA
Corp.

| Anticipated Upgrades |
Okay, I finally bought a new video card. What's next for the old 'puter?
If flat panel displays get cheap I might spring for one of those. The
Viewsonic VP181
is just calling out to me. "Scott...Scott..." it's saying, "Behold my dual
USB hubs, picture-in-picture, 18-inch viewable, 1600x1200 max resolution,
and multiple analog, digital, and composite video inputs."
