About Me

Chances
are, if you’re looking at this page you’ve come here via a Search Engine,
Newsgroup or a URL from someone else’s website. My blogs not really intended to
be followed in a linear fashion.

I’m Paul Young, Technology guy by day,
and 4WD, DIY, Treehugger and
other stuff whenever I can. I really don’t like “about me pages“, so I’ll
keep this short.

Why the blog? — Well I get really annoyed (almost
postal) at not being able to easily
get data and information I need.  It’s easy enough to find crap overviews (via google or wikipedia), but finding people who explicitly understand the issue is
a lot harder. internet forums often seem to do little more than spread
confusion. I’m very much into information sharing and finding answers. Often I
just “have to know” and the question will keep pestering my brain until I do.
This is a reference point for those answers.

So here is my way of lashing out in frustration.  Dumping things out of
my head so I can move on with my life  …rinse and repeat.

I don’t stick to anyone theme and you’ll find mostly assorted bits here on:

• IT Engineering Data
  • IBM
    RAID had to be different,
  • 
    DFS-R Replication Efficiency,
  • 
    Why you should VM your Print Servers
• Microsoft Media Centre
  • cheap 2TB RAID Server for home,
    
  • Silent PC Design Fundamentals
• 4WD
  • A Safer way to Snatch,
    
  • Why generators SUCK for camping,
    
  • Batteries lead an isolated life
• Home renovations
  • Crompton
    CF Downlights
• And the assorted rants
  • Its
    Time For Airport Security To Ketchup With Reality (from The Herald )

I try to live by the motto “Do something each
day that scares you”. It’s healthy to be out of your comfort zone.
