I had the same setup until a certain grade in HS. It was a huge difference.

That's definitely decent for a kid straight out of high school. On the other hand, that sounds boring as all get out. 20-some year olds probably wouldn't last long if they have any drive whatsoever to better themselves. Either that, or they just think they /deserve/ better. ;)
