Anyone ever look back at the old forum discussions to see how far we've come? There were (at the time) impossible to find chips that are now part of our collections.
I was also just looking back at all the posts I used to make, and I feel a bit ashamed  All I did was attack people and act very childish..then again I was in my first year of high school when I joined here, now I'm in my second year of college  I hope I can say I've changed as much as my collection has But I apologize to anyone I've been a prick to

If you don't mind me asking, how did you fund your collection? I can't remember having much money in high school or university (in fact I'm sure every cent was spent just "living")

well like any freshmen in highschool I asked my dad to buy my first bunch of cpus I started off when he gave me a bunch of goldcap pentiums, one of them was an engineering sample with Confidnetial written on it. I went online to do research, and found CPU-world
Then I started an ebay business the next year and started paying for my own chips.
