About Me

Ok I need to put something worth reading here. I just wish I had something.
I am a bit of a Geek Boy; I am into home automation robotics, computers and electronics. I am very old school geek. My whole house is automated I use the MisterHouse program as the core for my system.
(This is Audrey she runs the house. Lighting, Phone, Audio and Video etc.)

I have a couple of comercial robots like the Roomba vacuum (Big time saver). And an Aibo ERS210 robot dog Named Ookami (Wolf). I have built a few robots in my day as well..)

Oh, my fridge has its own email address and IM screen name (I am such a geek)
I love classic arcade games. I have made a few M.A.M.E. (Multi Arcade Machine Emulation) systems so I can get the feel of a real arcade play. Still need to do the artwork for these systems, but they are wicked fun to play. The full size one is great for beat'em up games (Pocket Fighter Japan is my Fav) and the cocktail table one is great for the classics and you have a place to set your beer!

I am into HTPC (Home Theater PC)
