Welcome to GeekZone.. as a gamer you may well be interested in visiting http://www.urbanlan.co.nz/ pretty cool group of guys who regularly (2-3 times a year) have a 60-70 person LAN at WinTec.




I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup. Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.
