Computer Enthusiast Since 1975 I've been passionate about computers and technology since my Introduction to Computers course in college back in 1975 or so. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Technology and worked in the steel fabrication industry for a few years before being able to put my passion to work full time. My first PC was an IBM PC with dual floppy drives, 256 Kb of RAM, and a CGA adapter for display (16 colors). I bought it with a copy of Microsoft Word 1.0 and the original MS Mouse. We've certainly come a long way since those early days and I've enjoyed the ride. I am a Manager in IT at UPS. You'll find me serving as a volunteer moderator and answerer at the Microsoft Security Essentials forums, the MSN Solution Center, the Windows Live Solution Center and the forums at Computer Haven. I moderated the Windows Live One Care forums and the Live Mesh Forums before they were closed in 2011. I still frequent many of the Microsoft Public Newsgroups that are still appearing on several nntp servers, specifically those for Windows Live products and services and MSN. I enjoy helping people with technology and computers. Microsoft has thanked me with a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional award since October of 2004. I live in NJ, USA with my lovely wife and our dogs and cats. |
