I've always been interested in computers, and I'm glad I grew up in an area with a decent sized community of computer people.  I know my area isn't the biggest metro area, but it seemed like there were a bunch of BBSes in the area back in the early-mid 90s, and it was fun to use them.  It was fun running my own at the time too.
