What have I to offer

Our world is literally moving to the 'digital' nature of many things. Your documents, photographs & videos, your music and your addressbooks are all available in digital form.

My offer is simply to assist you in managing your daily concerns with computers and internet, your binary legacy for longevity and accessability, to help you to survive in an ever changing complex world. I use tried procedures only, open standards without expiry date and OpenSource software that does not confine you to a certain brand (as is the case with most Microsoft solutions).

That you may show your photos to your grandchildren...

Trust

As part of my involvement with you (in case we enter into a contract) I will probably have access to sensitive data of yours, like logins, passwords, content, your entire computer, network or web site. I appreciate the trust you have in me. Not only because my business is mainly based on mouth-to-mouth advertising, I always keep strictly confidential of what I get to know, I keep it safe, and I stay off areas I do not need to know.

Experience

I have 30 years experience in computers. As part of my career in space engineering I've been head of IT in a company running 100 machines. Since 1999 I've specialized in Linux and similar systems. I've been leading a migration from MS based systems to a fully OpenSource Software enabled environment. My involvement with the digiKam project dates back to 2003.

Cost

My rates are very competitive and adapted to the task. Usually I can charge a fixed price, even for maintenance work. Please contact me for details. All software I use or that I may install on your machines/web sites are free of charge.
