Memoir by Mikaela Hobbs By the time my father bought me first electronics tool set, I was
hooked on the idea of building computers. I understood how circuits
worked and how to make electricity flow from one part of the machine
to another. Looking at a circuit board was for me like reading a book. It
just made sense.
