Why'd you pick your avatar?
Avatars have been one of the great features added to webboards in the last few years. This site is no exception, and I've noticed a lot of avatars; some of them make obvious sense, and others don't.
So, why'd you pick your avatar?
Let me start with myself: I started playing with computers around 3 with a Timex Sinclair (anyone remember that?). I "graduated" to a Commodore around 4, and we had our first PC clone shortly thereafter (an Eagle PC, does anyone remember that?  ) The PC was one of the first units I actually did serious work on. In fact I did some simple word processing consulting for friends and relatives on the PC before I was in high school (even then, there were all those people that said "how do I print" :P) So, I set my avatar as a PC to represent the amount of time I spent with them.
What's scary is, we probably have one or two still-working original PC 5150's in the attic somewhere. Admittedly, I don't use one anymore
