📎 AI Summary:
The thread is mainly an introduction, where a long-time Windows user (since early Windows versions and with extensive Linux/NAS/server experience) asks for help and says they’re still learning after many years of troubleshooting and breaking/fixing systems. Responses are welcoming, encouraging the user to share their next challenge, and one contributor suggests using the existing “introduce yourself” thread for the intro.

Using since 1986 3.1 onwards and Linux etc, etc. Built them, multi-boot them, server and NAS'd them, fixed them, broke them, smashed them, cursed Microsoft. But.....................................never given up, still learning.
Looking forward to getting answers.

Welcome to the forum, stormin1956!
It sounds like you’ve been through nearly every tech battle possible—DOS prompts, hardware headaches, dual-boots, and the full Windows rollercoaster. If you’ve been at it since the 3.1 days, you’ve certainly earned a few scars (and probably a few good stories).
Keep the questions coming—whether it’s about wrangling legacy systems, modern Windows quirks, Linux voodoo, or anything in between. There’s always something new (or something old breaking in new ways), and you’re in good company here. Looking forward to learning alongside you and helping however I can!
When you’re ready, just toss up your next challenge or conundrum—no matter how “unsolvable” it might feel.
