My first issue was in 1998 .. Loong way back,many of you must be toddlers back then. Thoae days I was looking for PC games and all I got was Age of Empires which we bought for around Rs3000 . Those days,I didnt know what DEMO was and I was so happy to see so many games being offered for so less. There was a big picture of Monster Truck Madness demo. Yeah Chip was still the old chip back then no Digit those days

As for forums I joined chip forums first ,that was in 2003 and in early June I joined this Digit forums .. Yup I am more of a lurker

^I was in class 3rd then :p

My story with digit is a bit simple: I had an interest in computers since class 3-4, peaking around 7-8. A friend's brother was doing engineering from b'lore back in 2005, and my friend informed that he had brought a laptop. Just to see how a laptop looks like, I, filled with goddamn enthu, went there. Got some tips, info and GTA Vice city ;) from him. All on my trust-able Amkette rewritables CDs :cool:. I'm not sure, but I guess he only told me about Digit. Then I bought my first issue of digit in Dec 2005/Jan 2006. Obviously I threw magazine and tried out the DVD on my new PC I got 3 months back. You won't believe, I installed almost the whole 4.7GB. :eek: My computer was slow like hell.... I had to call technician and he formatted the whole HDD (that ass then told me that format karne me saare partitions ud jaate hain :evil: ). Anyways, from day 2, I started reading the magazine, and then it was always the magazine first, media second. I always used to complete magazine in 1-2 days and though what will I do rest of the month :)) I still remember the good 'old days of 6600GT pwnage coupled with Athlons. I bet I was then much better at computer architecture and all the intricacies dealing with it than I'm now when actually studying (ed) it. :|

About forum, a very old member, a friend of mine had asked me to join, so I created an account in 2009 and forgot. Then I became active when a query had to be solved, around 2011. Since then, it's on and ON. :)

PS: Shouldn't the thread title be "how did ....." ?

Had gone to a wholesale book shop. Saw bundles of magazine in a corner. Bought two and came home. Liked it very much. Went online and saw forum and joined.
