Oh man, this is a hipster's wet dream.

Thanks for all the words of advice guys, I really appreciate it! Going to start the CS50x course tomorrow. :D

I live on the east coast, namely Boynton Beach, so it's pretty damn far away but there's a possibility I might join you guys! :)

There's no sense in upgrading to old tech.
