I am a learner geek, a woman in my 50s that has an interest in technology since the early days of 'computing' back in the 80s. I am completely self taught, I started out being a Windows, Microsoft devotee but in 2002 I switched to Apple Computers and when the iPhone & iPad came out, I was hooked. I don't have the luxury of hiring expertise to install, hardware, software and networks so I fumble about with instructions, trial and error etc. I'm probably the person the 'experts' refer to when they say, "A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing"
I wish I had known about this site years ago, it might have saved me a lot of headaches.
