Hello. I just realised after noticing there is an introductions forum, that I am one of those people that have been reading for many moons, but only recently became a member.
So I thought I better post.
I am ray. Locally known as Uncle Rayray. I am a computer salesman and work at the local retravision here in hawkes bay. I am probably in the wrong job but I love it.
My passions include loathing / hating / ridiculeing Telecom.
I guess I have a "claim to fame" - I publicised the sms / text message security problems that telecom were having a while ago and ended up on the evening news.
I also run www.netchoice.co.nz as a way of showing people the price differences between isp's and how better off they are for not using Xtra.
In the way of computing, I am most interested in networking and web desgn. I only recently have started to learn php and dont know much about programming other than batch scripting, BASIC which I learned on an Atari 400, and the php / html sort of stuff.
For those of you who are interested to know that there is still such a thing, or jealous, there are 4 commodore 64's still in their shrinkwrap in my garage which I will probably put up for sale in about 10 years time. I inherited them from someone who ran an electronics store and they were left over stock from when it closed down.
My dream job is simply a network administrator. I will probably go back to school next year and get some qualifications.
So this is a late Hi.
