Welcome to my blog!
My name is Rick Ludvigsen. My background includes a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science from Marquette University, graduate coursework at the Illinois Institute of Technology and over 20 years of industry experience at Fortune 100 corporations including Motorola and Microsoft. I currently work at Cray, the Super Computer Company, on their XMT project. In addition, I have over a decade of experience in personal technology and information technology consulting.
My goal is to provide product reviews and tidbits of technical wisdom that I have accumulated in the hope that it is of some benefit to others. I will include reviews and tips regarding gadgets, cell phones, hardware, applications, Microsoft Windows, Linux and Mac environments. Some additional posts may also appear regarding other technological areas that I have expertise in like software development, software testing, Software Configuration Management (SCM) and quality.
Lively but respectful discussion is always welcome. I also encourage the submission of questions or other technical topics you would like to see addressed.
Enjoy!
