Ho Hum. Well, I've just emigrated from the UK to Wellington (lovely place you have here, btw). My fall from grace started with a Commodore VIC-20 back in the 80's. I've still got that baby too - gonna set her up when my stuff arrives from the UK! :)
By day I earn a respectable living as a .NET (mainly C#) developer. By night I poke around with *NIX, Perl scripts (I have an unhealthy love of regular expressions) & gaming. My geeky credentials include converting retired Windows machines to high-performing OpenBSD boxes, tweaking around with 3d rendering in GDI+ & knifing n00bs on Counter-Strike/BF2/BF2142. At the moment, I'm currently working towards my Solaris 10 System Administration exam (pt. 1).
Taking a complete U-turn from geekdom, I'm getting married at Christmas & I love the outdoors. My fiancée and I can often be seen hiking (or tramping!) around Mt. KauKau & the Ngaio skyline peaks. I also like running - did a few half-marathons back in the UK for charity & hope to do a full marathon soon in NZ!
My top websites are http://slashdot.org/, http://peanuts.com/ & http://dilbert.com/ and my favourite colour is green. Look forward to seeing you around!
Richard.
