I worked with different systems: PDP-11, VAX, PC, Mac, Sun Sparc, IBM RS/6000 and others. My work has included alamost every kind of programming/hacking from assembler programming on the boxes without operating systems to class libraries for C++ under UNIX. I've used various networks even before Internet has grown to its current size, and I wrote a Fidonet-compatible mailer (MailPump) and this FTP/HTTP daemon. I like some operating systems (most of UNIX'es) and dislike some operating systems (MS-DOS 6.x). Some systems disgust me (bright example: MS-Windows aka Windoze aka MeSsyWindoze -- please, don't speak to me about it, I'm already sick of damn thing at work).
I haven't mentioned yet, that I'm Russian (actually, I'm from Gomel, which is now in Belarus Republic, although I don't care what names politicians assign to the place - they are all morons anyway). Now I live in San Mateo (California, USA), working as a programmer. Some people may remember that I have started the first BBS in Gomel (Crawfish BBS, it exists now at +7-0232-531828 phone, 2:452/1), I was 2:452/0 (NC2:452 in Fidonet).
