I may have been a fresher once, or even twice, but will vehemently deny it when it suits me. My name really is Bob. Ha, it's in a wiki so it must be true!
I'm also the guy you want to come and see if:

• you have an awesome hardware project you want to get started

• you're looking for the president dictator

• you're interested in electronics and embedded devices

• I owe you money
• steam isn't working,. No really, I don't care.
• you think that rubber-dome keyboards are good
