About me

<div style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">I became aware of Dell in 1997 and started posting on their forum in 1998. I enjoyed working with the many people seeking help but what made me stay for 10+ years were the Members, Regulars, “Oldies”, VIPs … the friends ... I made on the forum. You will not find a better group of people anywhere else on the net. In 2000 a bunch of us created a web site for help with Dell’s optical drives, I still have it listed <a href="http://www.the-predator.com">here</a> and I hope some of you will find it useful. I officially retired from the site in February of 2008 but I still stay in touch with a number of friends and colleagues from Dell. My wife Deb & I live in a small town of Wise, Virginia. I have worked for Old Dominion Power Company for 31+ years and currently a Inspector / Graphical Engineer. </span></div> <div style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"> </div> <div style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">I went back to college in 2009 and graduated with a Associate Degree in Applied Science in Business Management and Small Business Management on May 13th, 2011 Summa *** Lauda with a 4.0GPA</span></div> <div style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Drop me an e-mail sometime:</span></div> <div style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"><a href="mailto:jpredator@excite.com">jpredator@excite.com</a></span></div>
