Java
Java was the first language I explored in 8th grade in my middle school. We made GUI roman calculators and the infamous "Hello World" starting program. This is the language that made me want to start programming and taking a bigger interest into computers, since I enjoyed it so much. -
Wireless Networks - Acess Point
I installed my first wireless networking piece in 2010 when I worked for quest networks incorporated in Virginia. Wireless networking was the first thing I was interested after learning how to make a CAT 5e cable. During this time the best networking hardware was of the 802.11 G standard which now there is an A/C and A/D standard. -
Search Engine - Google.com
Google is one the biggest search engines that I have used since I touched a computer. I remember using google on my uncles laptop using a dial-up connection and searching the web which was super exciting. I have used many other search engines but this one is always my home page of my computer. Google was almost sold to Excite in early 1999. -
Graphical User Interface
The first version of windows that I used was windows 2000. The machine was my parents old one that was stuck in the attic. I couldn't used it because it was to slow and filled with viruses from my brothers. No one at that time had the technological literacy to fix it. Before the product went mainstream there was already an exploit for that version of windows the day before release. -
Personal Computer - CPU
The AMD Athlon X2 was the first dual core processor that was released and the first processor I used in my first computer I built, which kept me with the AMD brand. This seems funny that currently in my PC I am running a 8-core / 16 thread processor at 5.0 GHz. -
