As with most early-to-mid twenty-somethings out there, I grew up on a healthy portion of video games. When I was about 6 or 7, my family invested in our first Nintendo, which changed our lives forever. Fortunately for us, it didn't shift our lives in the direction of endless bags …

Hi guys, Years ago (10 to be exact) I studied Computers at Uni. After Uni I fell into a succession of other jobs (non-IT related). I always felt that I should have been working in IT, seeing as I'd studied it. I was recently made redundant and had come to …
