I am most proud of being able to play Starcraft or Counterstrike for hours and not eat, only to fall back asleep again.
 
Minesweeper champion of the world! (NOT)


Most definitely turning the computer on without it crashing.

The fact that I am a senior network engineer, worked on computers and newtoworks for over 15 years (started at Wang, remember them?),have a six figure salary and NEVER went to school (barely finished HS), no formal training (all self taught), have no certifications (or very few). And now work at one of the largest entertainment companies in the world (wont tell ya!). 🙂
 
fragarific.....you kidding?.........you've got to be kidding. If you're kidding then you should've added a smiley to let us know.....
 
And if I had to answer the original question, it'd be my ability to make a workaround for any problem I encounter. Whether it be programming up a quick solution or using duct tape, I can solve almost any problem with a little work.
 


<< That seems like such an easy job... How do you apply to do that job and how much do they pay? >>

Any chance you've written a FAQ on how to go about doing that? >>

I'll take a copy or two of that also.... 😉 😉

My MADSkILLz include the wonderful art of scrapping pieces of automobiles and household appliances to be implemented into cooling for the beast here....it's also a testimony to how pathetic I am that I remember seeing a dual processor 386sx 25Mhz overclocked to 33Mhz on the cover of a mag back in the day...selling for 11G's!!! I guess everybody starts somewhere....

 
The ability to make everything work without ever getting help form other people. From software to hardware, what I know I learned myself. Im kinda proud of that. VaNeleus, OUT.
