Somewhat obviously, my name is Erik Siers. I'm one of the BASIC cheerleaders on RC. (I can do other languages, but I prefer BASIC by a lot.) I'm in and out of here on no regular schedule -- I might contribute several times a week for several months, then disappear completely for several more.

Job hunting '''''again'''''. Yay.
 
=Operating Systems=
 
I use a lot of OS's:
*[[wp:Slackware|Slackware]] [[Linux]] 13.37 on my main server
**Also [[wp:Red Hat Enterprise Linux|Red Hat Enterprise Linux]] on my rack server -- but only until I get around to putting something else on it... maybe Slackware, maybe not
*[[Windows]] [[wp:Windows XP|XP]]
**Also [[wp:Windows XP Professional x64 Edition|WinXP x64]] and [[wp:Windows 7|Windows 7]] (32-bit) on my x64 machine, for testing my programs
***Win7 is ''way'' too slow on my systemsystems to be usable
****I ''might'' try Win8, if I can get it for free, legally -- but not holding my breath
*[[MS-DOS]] 7.1 (from [[wp:Windows 98#Windows 98 Second Edition|Windows 98SE]])
Line 48 ⟶ 45:
*[[Mac OS]] 8 on my [[wp:PowerBook|PowerBook]]
**Also [[wp:System 7|System 7]], on my [[wp:Macintosh Performa|Performa]]
**Also also the x86 version of [[wp:Rhapsody (operating system)|Rhapsody DR2]] (precursor to OSX; essentially [[NeXT]] + a Mac [[GUI]]), just for kicks
 
I also toy around with numerous other operating systems under emulation (too many to list, but includes ''almost'' every 32-bit version of Windows, more than a few Linux distros, and several other *nix systems).

=Links=
 
I put up my programming links on [[User:Eriksiers/Links|their own page]]. HaveThey funhaven't been updated in quite a while, though.
 
'''[[wp:User:Eriksiers|This]]''' is my Wikipedia user page.
