Hello

[shawnp]

I am a new member to the board.

A little bit about me?

I am 27, male, married for more than 9 months now. I have two cats, a fat Tabby (Pumpkin) and a skinny Russian Blue (Fiona). I grew up in Minnesota (Go vikings!) I went to school at the UnivOfMinn (Psychology and history), moved to Miami, then Orlando, and now to Northern Virginia. I work in finance for a fortune 100 company.

I started building computers when I was 14 with a DX/2-66. My first overclocking was the venerable Celeron 300, which smacked my friend's P2-450 around easily.

I still do a lot of computer stuff even though my job never calls for it. I like to learn, a lot, especially about finance stuff. I enjoy downhill skiing but my wife hates it, I also like fishing, site-seeing, and any type of music except for country. I also like to watch movies on my HT.

I want to be a downhill skiing fisher when I grow up. I think there is a huge market for the combination of those two events that will eventually rival Nascar.

So that's me in a nutshell.
