    i can still literally smell and remember the atmosphere in those IT classes:

    • PCs takes 10 mins to boot sometimes 30 mins. By the time it boots, we are out of time and cant play any games. Yes we are allowed the last 10 mins of class to play games.

    • Remember DAVE the game?

    • Keyboards are very satisfying to type on. Mouse is a hit n miss because they have those ball thing to control the direction. I.e. sometimes the ball gets stuck and you cannot click or scroll.

    • A bunch of geeks try to send message using net send command. We thought we are the gangsters.

    • Nothing worse than having an IT class after lunch, you have like 50 kids and 25 pcs and there are NO A.C. The only thing you have is the ceiling fan.

      I was such a nerd that I had a second mouse ball that soaked in a cup of rubbing alcohol and I’d swap them out before Quake matches.

      Oh and the BO smell from lan parties, worse than a locker room.
