Hi everyone

I really appreciate everyone's knowledge and contribution over the years on the forums so after 12 years working in tech industry I believe it is about time I pay my dues.

I have particular interests in mobile gadgets, solar energy, Telco/ISP and retro game consoles, but consider myself a generalist of 'high level how stuff works'....don't ask me for advice about writing code or anything.

Anyway, look forward to contributing and adding value where I can.

Welcome to this eclectic bunch Jason.

Join in existing discussions, add your bit, ask questions; it's all valid here, as long as you remember we're real people and don't get to aggro :)

<- don't ask me where I am - I haven't a clue: its a tech thing ;)
Housewife computerer: not particularly great at either. 
And don't take me too seriously.
