introductions

[Joonas Hämäläinen]

Greetings everyone,
Sure has this list sounded silent, I was little surprised about it. I'm 
only recently joined in, as I have started my sysadmin 'career' so late 
as this year!

I'm jeaulous to see how long experience you all seem to have from this 
kind of work, but experience comes with age, and I do not posses too 
many years yet.
But to the introduction point... I'm Joonas Hämäläinen from Finland, 
located at quite central part of it currently. Done high school and same 
time some university studies, but then military service took me. There I 
managed to get myself in sysadmin/system tester position at Finnish 
Military Education Center, where I look over centralized education 
portal. After I got out of military at last August, I moved here. Got 
job with some luck as sysadmin in NettiTieto (NTG Finland 
internationally I think.) Currently I'm on trial basis here, but I hope 
I will stay here longer. Looking over computers here, doing updates, 
maintaince and installs. Also I have found myself doing coding for 
portal engines here.

So sysadmin work experience is currently something like 7 months, and I 
like it this far. I have done this kind of things longer though, could 
say 6-7 years along side school.

Hobbies... Tweaking own and friends computers, experiencing new software 
and ways to enjoy computers at free life. These days I have girlfriend, 
so computers are put a bit aside and I spend time with her. I also 
happen to be scout, so been camping and hiking in past.

Oh, and someone asked does anyone have experience with IRIX. :) I have 
two SGI computers, one SGI Indigo and one SGI Indigo 2. I like them, 
especially 19" (Or was it even bigger... at least it is heavy, like 
whole computer!) screen Indigo2 happens to have :P Shame is that I 
haven't got them with me now, I do not wish to load all computers to my 
girlfriends parents house where I'm these days.

Regards,
Joonas Hämäläinen
