Hi All,
I'm Rob. I oversee all IT Services for a small Ohio-based clothing and apparrel chain. we have 12 stores in 4 states with over 60 workstations and 6servers with over 2TB of data storage. We are all Windows here (so far) with Server 2003 on the servers, and XP on all the workstations.

I have been involved in computers since the late 70's (Which is a good indication of my age!), as a hobby, and for the past 16 years, as a vocation.
At home I use primarily Linux (various Ubuntu versions), and XP.
