About

Sys-admin in a big international company, with some related programming on the side. (Mainly C, C#, C++, SQL and a lot of CMD and AutoIt scripting. I don't like PowerShell and avoid it as much as possible.)
Been in the computing business since the 80's. Ultrix, VMS, Aix, Linux, Windows. These days mainly the last 2.
For personal use I prefer a Mac.
Hobbies include: Programming (open source), working on classic sport-cars and bikes (have an Harley) and reading (mainly SF & Fantasy).
