Thanks for browsing! I am a Canadian born in Calgary. Having lived here most of my life it’s more than just a home. I am a certified computer programmer, low-voltage technician, security expert with decades of experience. I currently am looking for the right company to call my employer, and work the rest of my time as a freelance computer consultant and general ‘fix it’ guy. I’m well versed in numerous computer programming languages incluing BASIC, COBOL, JCP, C, C++, PHP, Python, Perl, and some tiny java and ruby in my blood too.
I speak many OS’s not limited to the full gambit of Microsoft Windows (anything since ’98 including a MCSE in NT, but right up to date with Windows Server 2008, and Windows 7 Ultimate), many of the GNU/Linux Distro’s although Debian is my favorite, and am also familiar with FreeBSD.
Hardware is no challenge for this geek pornstar and enjoy taking older hardware and making new systems as well as fiddling around with network IDS/IPS monitoring and solutions. Building out small networks or expanding existing ones I’ve worked on , WiFi solutions but I spend most of my time here learning about network security monitoring the most.
If you’re in the Calgary area and need someone, send me an email telling me you read it here. I’m always happy to have a new client, whether it’s only for a couple hours work, or more permanent arrangements.
Microsoft has announced Windows 7 is now open for public download.
There are many conditions and it’s a timed-beta common with many Windows beta products. You will require a Windows Live ID to connect to the download site, submit a bit of personally identifiable information, and you will then be given a download choice for 32 bit or 64 bit. I chose both. Then you will be given a java download manager which will then provide you with a location for saving the ISO’s for each download.
You will then need to be able to burn DVD ISO’s in order to get any use from this. Instructions are available on the download page, but I highly recommend that you also review the Installation instructions.
So head on over to the Windows Beta site before the beta download experience is over!!
Debian OS
Our preferred server OS. Great improvements on package maintenance as well as greater emphasis on security of network packages has made this one of the choice OS”s for servers
FreeNAS
A great Network Accessible Storage (NAS) solution for any environment. Boots from a small image. One of the best projects, based on FreeBSD 5.x/6.x
Ubuntu OS
Our desktop OS of choice, completely free to download, and free to use. Has one of the largest support offerings as well as a very large user-community
