New guy
Well first about me,
I'm 16 (17 in march). If you were wondering, yes, I am in high school. Have a very mechanical mind and i have been working on cars for quite a while. I am also very good with computers, i have built several in the past, been doing that as far as i can remember too. So if you got a computer related question, i'm the guy to ask 
I have a 2001 Alero GL 2 door coupe with the 2.4L auto and it's my first car. It's got about 68k miles on it. Just got it about 4 days ago and i'm loving it. Found this forum through a google search looking for a CAI, and now i am going to do the LED mod to my gauges too.
I'll get pics up tommrow of my ride 
And, I live in Suffolk, VA |

Well, I'm in the same boat as the OP, I'm in IT at a vocational school also have an office job for a major law firm in Western Mass doing IT work. So, I think I can say that, NO, do not pour cola on your hard drive.  |
