Why PC Wandering?

Hello all you cyber wanderlings looking for ways to improve your PC computing experience. This blog is here to help you get your machine in top running form and keep it that way. I will share some basic tune up tips, tell you how to keep your machine running right, and share things I discover as I help customers battle the demons of the internet.

I have been playing with computers since 1979 when I built a Heathkit H89. It was an "all in one" model with a Z80 processor, 64k of memory and two, count them, two 100k 5 1/4 inch floppy drives. Since then I have owned 8086, PI, PII, PIII, P4, multiple AMD, and even Cyrix, computers running everything from HDOS, CP/M, MS Dos, Windows 1, Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows XP, NT Workstaion, Windows 2000, Vista and Windows 7. I have also loaded multiple varieties of Linux. I have a second media  machine dual booting XP and Ubuntu 9.1 as a Wubi install. I even have an Apple PowerMac G4 running OS X.

I am a retired (20 years ago) USAF fighter pilot and I currently am semi-retired and self employed as a computer tech, mostly PCs but I do help folks out with their Macs occasionally.

Stay tuned and I will try to guide you through the PC jungle. The level of information I share will be from basic to geek, so just pick what you want and go with it.

Just signed on to take a look. I like what you are doing here, but I am not a computer guru, as you know, so I find the comments about geeks doing something different a little confusing.
