I have worked in this industry for years, not wanting to reveal too much.  I am moved to action when a product comes along that I can support without resevation, to users, the source of my being here. 

I have managed large and small, I like small and the hands on - I dislike being lost in the crowd in large. 

 

I like to think I make good decisions and give good advice - but that is for my peers to decide - I can only talk, or write.

Computers/Networking were my hobby and now they are my job - I am a current Hobby Hunter.

 

I have always been successful in Jobs I have had - have been hired with a handshake, no interviews, and had a customer following as an outside tech that followed me after I took my first inside corporate job.  I weaned them off as I needed to have a life. 

 

When a user asks where to take their pc to get it fixed, I have no reply.  If I cant fix it throw it away.

Since I fix all my own, what would you say?

I never take any equipment to a shop...

 

I have friends who call me for the answers.  The list is shorter thanks to Google.  And in a way longer since you never know in a search how good the advice you are getting might turn out. (or who is giving it).

 

My name is Chris and this is what I do.
