About Me 

My name is Bill Hamilton. I live in Collingwood Ontario Canada.
In 1999 I was a Honors graduate from the Microcomputer Maintenance And Support course at Georgian College.
This was an 30 week course on both Computer Software and Hardware.
Although I never went on to work in that field, I kept working on computers as a hobby.
Since then I have been by upgrading and assembling computers for myself as well as for other people.
