Bio:
I’m currently studying Electronics and Electrical Engineering at Edinburgh University living by the sea with my girlfriend Rach. Love all racket sports, running when my knee decides to work, playing the sax and pretty much anything with electricity running through it.
Setup:
Portable -
Currently rocking a Nokia E71 for the QWERTY, ZuneHD for media and a Cannon Digital IXUS 860IS.
Audio -
A pair of very old but amazing Spendor BC1 speakers hooked up to a Logitech Squeezebox Duet.
Computing -
Inspiron 9400 with an external screen (Win 7), a Media Server (Windows Home Server), Logitech MX Revolution Mouse, and a Quickcam Pro 9000 Webcam.
Gaming
Xbox360, Logitech Z5500 5.1 Surround Sound, 32″ Samsung TV and a comfy sofa.
Gamertag: N0RMAN0
Words he uses far too often:
Epic, Legend, Beastly, Mammoth, Sneaking.

Bio:
Currently working full time in a Bar/Restaurant in Edinburgh (oh joy of joys! /s ). Previously studying Physics and Astronomy at Edinburgh University, currently taking time out with the idea of finding a ‘real’ job in what is laughingly called IT. Full time cynic, but more importantly also an accomplished guitar player and teacher.
Setup:
Portable -
Currently using an iPhone 3G(s) (White, 32GB). Need I say more? Oh, and a Casio Edifice EQW-500DBE Watch.
Audio -
Dual-stereo output on a Logitech Z5500 5.1 system. Routed from a server based iTunes library and an AirPort Express, controlled by the iPhone ‘Remote‘ application. Oh, and of course a Roberts DAB Radio for that Sunday afternoon BBC Radio 3.
Computing -
Inspiron 6400 (awaiting imminent replacement pending funds!)(Win7), self built Media Server with a few Terabytes of storage (running Windows Home Server), Logitech MX mouse.
Gaming
Xbox360, Logitech Z5500 5.1 Surround Sound, 32″ Samsung LCD TV, 2 cunningly positioned Poäng armchairs, a Futon and a beanbag (all placed around a rather cheeky coffee table)
