[ApK]

While my classmates were out playing sports and meeting girls, I was learning BASIC and 6502 assembler, and hacking photo resistors into the game port of my Apple ][+.

Spent many years on help desks, building and fixing PCs, and have spent the last 20 or so mostly as a .NET developer.

Sort of lost the hobbyist spirit a while back. Other than wasting time here and on other forums, I like to spend my free time away from the computer.
But every now and then some need will pop up in my life and will awaken the hacker in me long enough to accomplish what I want...installing custom firmware on my electronic devices, setting up customized home digital video distribution, tracking down and learning to use certain python scripts to make my ereader more flexible...
