I'm a geek, and proud of it.
I'm a technical support engineer for very high speed cut sheet printers. I
need a good knowledge of Unix/Solaris, TCP/IP, Windows, Macintosh, Novell,
PostScript and PCL. I'm finding Perl and shell programming useful to.
In my free time, I play with my computer and read and write computer books
(Samba for Dummies is my latest).
I also play Lego with my 4 year old daughter, brew beer, run and workout,
and read (the Wheel of Time is the latest fantasy series to grip my
imagination).
