For the first part of my working career was only exposed to the windows environment as I was working for large organisations whose infrastructure where windows based. When I moved to the Australia for a year the only tech I took with me was a 60gb iTouch and a Linux Netbook. Love the whole ethos behind open source technologies allowing you to do what ever you want without being held back by constants of other operating systems.

Having said that bought a Mac Mini last year and enjoy the fact that things just work without any need for in-depth configuration. This has allowed me to spend more time doing work as oppose to configuring different working environments.

Enjoy trying new sports last one being wake boarding and try to head off to slopes as often as possible. Last snowboarding trip was to New Zealand and absolutely fell in love with the place definitely the most unpolluted and untouched natural place I have ever been to.
