About: I'm going to medical school on a free ride from UPMC [a Pittsburgh based insurance company] once I finish undergrad, I just found out a few weeks ago so it's pretty exciting news for me. Other than I'm a pretty normal person aside from the crazy hardware obsession.

I should also disclose that I am owner / editor of IT trib. Did you already guess that IT trib is another tech news / reviews site? Well, you're right! I'm involved in this thread regarding an interview with Philly_Boy, and I would like to thank all the warm welcomes I've received in that thread already. Thanks folks!
