Back when I was about 8, I was pretty good at fixing some problems the comps had. I'm still as good today, but in my new school, not much of that kinda stuff happens today.

Do you use Linux, Plasma girl? If you like computers, you'll want to check out linux. Its an operating system thats really customizable and fun for people who like computers.

Would you be willing to try out linux? I reccomend that you do. You can burn a cd from downloadable isos and run linux off the cd to test it without needing to install anything or change your computer's configuration.

I do voluntary work at a local autism association office maintaining a computer network which I have set up, and I have solved more computer problems than most people have.

But at the end of the day, it will be extremely difficult to persuade those NTs working in the office to switch from Winblows to Linux.

My main focus is on Mac. I can repair them quickly and up and running. Previous experience at an Repair Store in my hometown got me a lot of experience with the wonderful Mac OS and the Mac. I just ordered an iMac G5. I am a between high advanced and low expert. I am learning Panther right now and have tons of books to read on the latest Apple things like the award winning iPod. Oh I also service those PC's.javascript:emoticon(':P')

Macs + Games = :cry:

Windows + Games = :D

So, I can fix windows, if only to play mah games.

The way I see it, Linux is becoming more and more a viable gaming machine, where as macs don't really have much along those lines, and their future in that area isn't really bright.
