Hello and greetings from Auckland, New Zealand.
So, what can I say about myself?
I know a little bit about Unix/FreeBSD/Linux, having been a systems engineer for System V based network in the 1980s. FreeBSD was my staple system at home until about seven years ago.
I ripped my CD collection to MP3s in the late 1990s and did a really bad job of it, so I'm 80% of my way through doing it again (this time to FLAC). I'm surprised how many of those CDs have degraded to a point where even Exact Audio Copy can't save them . I guess I'll be going shopping to replace them.
Currently, I'm playing around with some Raspberry PIs as I try to set up a multiroom audio system.
