Greetings everyone, from a fellow switcher. :)

I've been thinking of gettin a mac for a few years. I'm an average geek, and love to play with my equipment, tools, etc. So I prefered to choose parts, get them together, build up fancy cases, etc. Did not wanted to have the ease and simplicity of a MAC for years. After getting highschool, I began to take things seriously, I needed to get better on my interests, get something better than average hobbys.

Now I'm in college, pursuing a degree in engineering, needed a better platform to work on, so I've gotten a MacBook Pro 5.5, both extremely portable and powerful. Snuffed arround for last three months, settled myself in, and ready for some serious work.

I'm a good all-rounder, though I try hard to avoid turning into a "jack of all trades, master of none" type. Anyway, I have some variety of interest, I might bore you with questions for some time, but I'll be a keen listener also. I value discussion and learning real high, so I hope to learn something from you, and teach a bit, if I can.

Well, I said much, told enough, so, hey.
:)
