What’s your experience level?

You could say that I’m a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none kind of guy. I’ve really done a lit­tle bit of every­thing. I ran Win­dows almost exclu­sively (although I played around with Man­drake Linux in mid­dle school) most of my life until my junior year of high school. I had a crash under Win­dows XP and lost about half a semester’s worth of work. That’s when I switched to Linux. I tried Ubuntu at first, then a bunch of other dis­tri­b­u­tions (includ­ing the build-your-own dis­tri­b­u­tions like Gen­too and Arch).

I ran Linux almost exclu­sively (I kept Win­dows for gam­ing, basi­cally) for the rest of my junior year, all of my senior year, and about another six months after I grad­u­ated high school. Through run­ning Linux I learned a lot about how com­put­ers work, espe­cially net­work­ing; I even built my own web server that dou­bled as my family’s router for a cou­ple months.

Lately, I’ve been mess­ing around with OSX and plan to buy a Mac­book Pro in the not-to-distant future. I’ve had expe­ri­ence, then, break­ing and fix­ing vir­tu­ally every rea­son­ably com­mon oper­at­ing sys­tem. I’ve fixed peo­ple PCs, Macs, iPhones, Android phones, and my own Linux web server sev­eral times. My biggest weak­ness is prob­a­bly in cod­ing. I’m not good at writ­ing appli­ca­tions from scratch.

Admit­tedly, I’m young. I don’t have a lot of expe­ri­ence with any­thing; what I have is a lit­tle expe­ri­ence with a lot of things. Maybe I’m worth hir­ing to fix your computer?
