I am what might be considered a computer architecture hobbyist, having posted some macroarchitectural and microarchitectural thoughts on the comp.arch newsgroup and the Real World Technologies forum.

My church affiliation is Presbyterian (PCA) by temperament and general belief.

I am only mostly useless. Mostly useless is slightly useful. (Yes, I liked the movie The Princess Bride.)
