Hi There,

I have recently moved to Whitby, Porirua from Brisbane Australia. I have moved here as I have gone into business with my brother who owns the Hutt Pet Centre. (huttpetcentre.co.nz). We will be opening a new store in Porirua shortly and rebranding all the stores 'The Pet Centre" (thepetcentre.co.nz).  
 
I got into computing and all things gadget about 5 years ago. I was working in the call centre at wotif.com and they had an opening in their IT service desk. So I said I knew a little bit about computers and 10 months later I was rolling out MS Exchange 2007 to 130 staff.

I am really into Open Source and use Linux widely at home for my desktop and servers. However I have been exposed to and used all different sorts of software working at wotif.com and playing around at home. My most recent purchase was actually a 15" Mac Book pro last week. So I guess I use all sorts of software.

My other interests are cricket, golf, rugby and pretty much all sport. And yes I go for Australia all the way.... Aussie Aussie Aussie oi oi oi.

I look forward to chatting to you all and trying to help where I can with my experiences. Hopefully Geekzone will be as good a resource in my own research as was whirlpool.net.au was back home.

Feel free to say hi or to drop into one of our pet shops.

Cheers

Peter
