Long-time browser, first-time poster.

Post by duplo83 »

Hey everyone! First off, I need to give props to this site and all of it's contributers: Great Job! I work in IT and several problems I've encountered have been solved by intelligent posts I've found here. I really appreciate the activity of the moderators of the site too. There are way too many sites out there that resemble nothing more than a clutch of bickering children, accomplishing nothing.

Anyway, I fancy myself to be an enthusiast. I love building new rigs for myself and others, fixing computers, and generally immersing myself into the warm, welcoming sea of nerdness that we all frequent so often. Fortunately, my wife is the polar opposite of what we stand for so she acts as a counterbalance to my obsession, helping me avoid the negative stereotypes we are all pasted with. I look forward to conversing with all of you!
