65 (tomorrow), Hardware/Software since 1958 (Relays, Plug boards and Mercury Tube memories!!). Unix since it was a research project.

Most of my life was spent up and down the Western US. Now live in Western Canada.

Believe it or not, I find computing is still fun (and profitable!).

a/s/l?

Though I find these things generally moronic, I'm 21/Male/Chicago/USA.

I am a *paid* development intern at a downtown firm and a hacker by night...

But you told us anyway?

Better to be a hacker than a cracker. Most everybody loves a hacker, most everybody hates crackers.

37/male/Budapest

Hobby: Linux
Secondary hobby: fishes. I mean the real ones in an aquarium (just for the sake of easier installation - though I still had to solve some dependencies). I am quite new to this and sometimes frustrated by some of them freezing and so far finding absolutely no way to restart those...

Finally just a question: am I right that Isajera had been away from this forum for a long time?
Anyway, I am very glad to see her posting here again.
