One of many things I enjoy doing is building computers. I have built a wide range of computers like home PC's, file servers, home theatre PC's, point of sales (POS) terminals, highly reliable and secure computers used for business accounting, microcomputers, and high performance computers used for demanding tasks like renderings. I stay up-to-date on new hardware and software technology by frequently visiting my favorite source of tech news:

tomshardware

My favorite place to shop for computer parts and tech gadgets is:

newegg


I manage a dozen computer systems remotely using a VPN by:

My Favorite Websites:

Falstad.com - This is Paul Falstad's personal website. He makes a lot of great Java applets that can be used to visualize and simulate all sorts of electrical circuits, math, and physics concepts.

Pandora.com - Great website for free internet radio.

MyMovies.dk - This is the software that I use to manage my Blu-ray and DVD collection. With it, I am able to stream movies and TV shows throughout the house.

Hulu.com - The best free website for watching TV and movies.

Facebook.com - My favorite way to stay connected to friends.

inmotionhosting.com - My website host. So far they have been great.

All the PC's that I own run Boinc. Boinc uses my unused computer cycles to help solve large problems like finding cures for disease, study global warming, discover pulsars, and do many other types of scientific research.
