Q And, and how did you connect with these guys? How did you even know what they were doing?
A So, uh, a mutual friend that we didn't know was a mutual friend, um, was a friend of my sister and her, and her husband, my brother-in-law. Yeah. And one day, I'm at their house, um, again, I'm in high school, I'm a junior in high school, and he was there. I tell him I'm building computers now. Almost exactly the same story as, uh, as Nelson and Alex. I was building it for friends and family, and And he told me that he was working with a few guys that were, that started a computer company. And I go, oh man, that sounds incredible. I'd love to, you know, get to meet them. And he's like, actually they're hiring. So, um, he handed me a, uh, you know, like a post-it note with, uh, the name of the company, Alienware PC, and Alex Agla's phone number on it. I still have that sticky note till today. And then I called and we set up an interview for, I don't know, someday during the week. And they asked me to be there like at 12 or one. I'm like, actually, uh, can I show up at three?
