This strikes close to home - in a good way. While details are a bit different (excluding the college drop out part) I guess the best investment my parents made was when they bought me an i386... it sure took me places and then some. Being 40 soon computers had been a part of my life for well over 1/2 of it and I still enjoy the grind :)
