My Favorite Piece of Technology

¡Hello, World!

This is a difficult topic, because I like technology so much, it is a part of my life. But if I have to pick a favourite one I guess the winner is "the computer". My relatives (at least my male ones) love the computer: My grandpa is a computer programmer, my favourite Uncle is a computer engineer and my Dad attempt to get that grade but he failed. So, when I was a child they push me to that world. My first computer was a gift of my parents when I was two years old (two & half). It was a kind of "auto-gift" for the family, but they put it in my room so I treated that machine like it was mine. My Dad was working in the morning so, I must learn how to deal with it without his help.

I remember when I tried to install "Prehistorik" (a pre-historical game for DOS), I was alone in home and I didn't know how to install it... so I picked the phone, I called my Grandpa and said to him: "I can't install the game of the caveman, tell me how can I do that" My Grandpa just laughed and said something like he could go to my home and install that game for me in my PC but I was so obsessed to play it "right then" so my Grandpa gave me install instructions on the phone, and that was hard work because DOS doesn't have a visual interface.


I use the PC all day, everyday. If I'm not using the PC, it is on anyway, downloading something or processing some video. I use the PC for many activities:, for: "Chatting, Playing games, Design, Programming, Reading News, etc.". I don't know what my life would be like if I didn't know the computer. I think it's a very important piece of my life and my way to see the things. It was a period in my life when I didn't have many friends, because there in my neighbourhood the guys were mostly old people, older than me at least. So the Computer was a kind of "window" to see the world, to meet other people and learn so many things. It was the link between my family and have been the "panacea" for my questions (most of them ha ha).
