It's a lot safer that way ;D

    I failed cxc maths so I could not get into UWI so I went to work and the first thing I purchased was a pc in 1999. I just got hooked on it the rest is history

    I wasn't the academic type. Did well in sports. Did get all seven O'Levels with 1s and 2s ( I really do beleive in God and his miracles as that was one of them) ;D

    My mother wanted me to pursue some thing in business but i was darn reluctant, my dad saw this and said that maybe doing something practical may help to rejuvenate my desire for school. They enrolled me in 1993 to J.A.C.S (Jamaica Advanced Computer SYstem) a school in Montego Bay. I was introduced to pc repairs and maintenance, corel ventura DTP, FoxPro and basic did well but my love was the hardware part. 8) I got a diploma in Applied Computer Sciences in 1994.

    Never looked back since!!! Thanks Mom & Dad

    What really happened was everyone got tired of writing on paper and figuring out calculations in their head... hence everyone was forced to become a techie... (could be a government conspiracy)
