Well...
Normally you should find some more info about my private life and my private interests on this page.
Beside hanging around in front of computers a lot, I am interested in sports (jogging, cycling, fitness training, badminton, skiing, climbing) graphics and art, cinema, traveling, literature (among other things science fiction for example).
Because I regard all this as pretty normal hobbies, I won't tell you much more about it.
Computers
Nerdy stuff ahead: This is of course important enough to be mentioned here ;-)), as I would not be able to write and publish these pages without my machines.
Meanwhile six computers have piled up on my desk, five IBM-compatible PC's and one Palm Pilot m100 . One P90 with 32 MB RAM and a SCSI-harddisk which runs fli4l as a router for my DSL uplink at home. One (currently inactive) P133 with 48 MB RAM and a S3 graphics device, mostly kept as backup and for spare parts in case the P90 breaks down (I used this one to prepare my diploma-thesis). An also hopelessly outdated PII/300 with 256 MB RAM and a Matrox G200 graphics-adapter which now serves as a cheap surfing-machine for my parents (running Gentoo-Linux and thus preventing a lot of headaches regarding trojans, viruses and other malware), a AMD Duron 700 with 384 MB RAM and a GeForce 2 MX graphics-adapter on which I have installed Ubuntu-Linux and finally a AMD Athlon64 with 1 GB RAM and a nVidia GeForce 6600 GT card running Fedora Core 3.
Read my installation-notes regarding Gentoo-Linux, Fedora Core 3 and Fedora Core 6.
See also my review on Linux on Laptops which I compiled for the two machines I have used for my work.
Currently I have to cope with a Mac, but you won't find much info about Apple-computers on my site yet.
If I don't play, I toy around with Linux and bioinformatics-tools, programming stuff and playing (again :-)) with POVRay, Blender and LaTeX . In addition I sometimes run a Game-server on local LAN-party's with friends (6-15 people at most). More recently I became a bit more fundamentalistic regarding operating systems, and had to cope with Wine and Cedega to get some of the Windows-stuff to work on my FC3-box.
STOP! That's it! Really! Nothing else to tell!
Pretty boring, eh? You have been warned.
