Members and Newbies: Introduce Yourself to The Forums

[LadyHawk57]

I am new to amdforums. I am female, 40ish, but always feel like I much, much younger ! I am interested in computers, obviously, photography, scifi, anime, and golf (when I'm not tweaking my puters).

I have 4 fully built and functioning computers and one project computer that will be a linux box if I ever get linux to load properly, but that is why it's a project box.

I want to thank anyone and everyone for any questions they may answer or any advice they may give.

Finally started getting serious with my computing.. I mean, after all I should be as a tech right? I live out in the bay area, am into paintballing, skydiving, basketball, technology, racing (euro and classics) and motorcycles.
