What I feel toward Computer

The first time I used computer was I think when I was 5th grade of elementary school student, it was kind of fun just to surf web, and I really wanted my own computer since, with that in mind, I did prepare for the entrance exam for private middle school, and I passed. My parents bought me a computer as a celebration. That was very expensive, not because it had high spec, but because it was for the beginner and had so many software already installed. In retrospect, that was mistake, that I could have bought much better computer spending same amount of money. I did choose that one, without any knowledge about computer, I thought CPU is the key of computer, and I compared just the number written in the pamphlet, and actually I bought the one with Celeron CPU, not Pentium. At that time, the amount of memory was 256MB, I really remember, and I used that computer for about 6 years as a main machine, and as time passes, it gets slow, the lack of memory, because at that time, I really got into computer video game, there were free online game there, I played a lot with my friends, I played Diablo2 also, that was my first costly online game. That was fantastic. I first played only "MMO", that is RPG. And as I am now, I don't like RPG, and I started to play FPS, First Person Shooter, I think my first touch with FPS was free software, at middle school, and my friends in the computer club showed me a lot of free games, and I played everyday in the lunch time break. and I bought Half-Life, that was awesome, with wonderful setting of the world, attractive weapons, enemies. And I bought it mainly because I could play its MOD Counter-Strike1.6, and I got hooked, really. And I felt the processing is slow, and I bought memory to add, I bought one more 512 MB memory, and added it, and I got 768MB computer!! that was my first time I looked inside computer, that was fantastic, I felt something like professional, I just insert the new memory lol. And I found the better Graphic Board is necessary, and I bought it, I learned so much, which is compatible or not. And I got better computer. Well, my first incentive of computer was games.
Well, I still play games, sometimes, but not that much. I got fascinated by "Programming" and "Architecture" and every fantastic things happening in the world using computer like "Google", and iPad and so on, rather than just playing manufactured stuffs. In retrospect, incentive was absolutely games, but they are strong enough to attract so many people. Incentives are not have to be academic and solid foundation, rather they should be pure curiosity and ingenuity.
