The History

My history as a gamer started when Diablo II was released :D. Soon after 1.09 was replaced with 1.10 I was introduced to Counter-Strike. It was mid to late [version] 1.5 and all I did was pub. I started to watch CS movies like matrix, team9, m19 and thus I became aware of the professional side of CS. After that it's just history. I played in CAL and went from CAL-O to CAL-M over many seasons with my friends, new and old. My computer at the time wasn't anything special, but it did the job. It was a Gateway that was bought in '01. It had an Intel P4 2.0GHz, GeForce FX 5700LE AGP, 768MB of RAM, and a 120GB HD. It ran CS fine at 640x480, which was fine for me.
