From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am a senior business student at the University of Idaho majoring in Marketing and Economics. I have co-written a journal article titled "Time Series Analysis of Inflation Targeting in Selected Countries," which was published in the March 2007 edition of the Journal of Economic Policy Reform.

I am a computer enthusiast and particularly love all things Apple. I am an Apple Certified Technician, and worked as a computer technician for two years before working as Apple Campus Rep at my university. Much of my contributions on Wikipedia revolve around expanding and preserving information about Apple.


I switched to the Mac platform in 1998. While I have worked on a very wide array of Apple products, I've personally had the pleasure of owning the following hardware and software:

  • Macintosh Plus
  • PowerBook 180
  • PowerBook 540c
  • iMac 233
  • PowerBook G4 550
  • iMac G4 800
  • PowerBook G4 1.25
  • PowerBook 12" 1.25
  • iMac G5 1.8
  • MacBook 2.0
  • Mac OS 6.0.8, 7.1, 7.5, 7.6, 8.1, 8.5, 8.6, 9.0, 9.1, 9.2
  • Mac OS X 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4


Some of my favorite books chronicling the history of Apple and the computer industry include:

  • Apple Confidential by Owen Linzmayer
  • Mac Secrets 5th Ed. by David Pogue and Joseph Schorr
  • Revolution in the Valley by Andy Hertzfeld
  • The Second Coming of Steve Jobs by Alan Deutschman
  • Accidental Empires by Robert Cringley
  • Fire in the Valley by Paul Freiberger and Michael Swaine
