The First Post

Hello and Welcome to Real World Computing.

I have decided that with the slew of other tech sites available with reviews, news, and just general information about all the technology out there, that I would start my own to add to the quagmire. My idea for this blog is to have helpful reviews of products and technology that an everyday person would use. Most of those that are viewing this probably know me, and know my background. For those of you who don't, here is a short run down.

I was born at a very young age...ok, let skip all that and get to the important stuff. Starting around the time I was 10, I started messing about with computers. Programming Apple IIe with basic and graduating onto a the lovely Tandy running DOS, and even onto Windows 3.1. Those were other peoples computers. My first computer was a 100MHz with 16MB of RAM running Windows 95. After that, I couldn't stop. I start building my own PCs and gaming a lot.
I have worked in Computer tech positions for over 7 years now, mostly in education. I love new technology, and letting people know about it, and teaching them how to use it, and use it effectively.

That is the aim of this blog. Introduce people to technology. I hope you enjoy it. If there is anything you want to know about specifically just send me a comment, I will do some research and let you know. I am working on getting some new information about some new software coming out for the Mac in the first quarter of 2008. Keep your fingers crossed.
