Life in 1997
I was 10 years old and i had my first computer around 1997. Still no internet for us that time. 56kbps modem was bought a couple o years later. AoE was the game that i played. It was much later that i was introduced to silent hunter 3 and subsim around 19 years old

My 1997 memories....
I had just moved to Sacramemto CA and my best friend, a union cement truck driver got me a referral to the Roofer's Union and I was accepted into the 3-year apprentice progam and was summarily dispatched to one of the WORST summer jobs ever; tearing off the OLD COAL TAR roof on one of the local High Schools..... I will NEVER forget that misery!

1997. . . .
In 1997 I had just finished my first year back in college after having dropped out 3 years earlier. I had moved across the state and started going to one of the colleges that are a part of the big 12.
I started learning about computer hardware. I didn't even know Sub Simulation games existed. In fact, the last sub game I had played was Sub Hunt on the Intellivision. Since then I've built more desktop computers than I can remember. I've played a lot of different Simulation Games. Including Silent Hunter 3,4, and 5. IL-2 1946 and various versions since then. I've gotten married and had a successful career. A lot's happened in 20 years.
