In a "NutShell" I'm a Truck Driver!! I took an interest in computers sometime ago, when having a laptop on board, became almost an essential part of the job, next to a mobile phone. My main interest, is re-building old computers to a higher spec than the original, mainly with second hand parts purchased from ebay. This has now become my main pastime, in the true sense of the word. I'm quite happy to experiment to the point of total distruction, before having to do another re-install, I'll get there in the end!!!

IBM Thinkcentre A60 Intel4 2.8 2Gb Ram XP Pro SP3 HomeBuilt Tower AWRDACPI MotherBoard with Intel 4 2.4 2Gb Ram, GeForce FX5200 Graphics Card. XP Pro SP3 IBM ThinkPad T40 XP Pro SP3 1xOld Gateway P1 Computer running Windows Millenium Edition. I think XP is my prefered OS as I seem to keep coming back to it, Although I spent a lot of time with, and just as happy with Linux, Linux Mint10(Julia) and Ubuntu 10:10 Maybe it's the free software???

I have many interests, I live by the sea at Harwich,UK, I enjoy walks along the beach, I keep fit by swimming in the sea or local pool. Into most kinds of music, my favorites are 40's 50's & 60's stuff, Frank Sinatra, Doris Day Etc. and all Country Music. My main hobby indoors is old Computers, Pulling them to bits and re-building them, I don't really know what I'm doing half the time, but with the help of forums like this one, I usually get a result, which is very satisfying.
