During my college days (late 80s), I was denied access to a computer lab in my college when I wanted to accompany my friends who played chess for the college team and practicing with the computer. That hurt much and I decided to do learn computers. I joined a computer course the same day evening, and started learning MS Dos, BASIC and Pascal. That made me to go ahead further to post graduations with a computer degree and joined as a programmer in a US based company.
