What does Nigel do?
Currently works for Telstra as a Unix Software Engineer. Before that, worked in the Pharmaceutical I.T. industry.
He doesn’t like mornings, and is most helpful about ten minutes into his can of Coke.
Nigel likes tinkering with old cars (esp. British & Italian), and had a Mini (1974 Leyland Mini S sedan) in his parent's garage for about 10 years. He has a Fiat (1975 Fiat 124 Sport, CC coupe) which is still drivable.
Nigel’s wife, Michelle, has a reliable, Japanese car.
Nigel & ’chelle both like Aquariums and Apple Macs.

Computer stuff
Computer-wise, Nigel likes the Apple Mac. and Unix.
He thinks MacOS X (which is based on Unix) is heaven! He dislikes BIOS and most things Microsoft.

Nigel tinkers with software development in his spare time.
As the years pass, he is finding this harder to work on some of this stuff (lack of motivation and neuron loss?),
so the older software is not updated much. Cest le vie.
