Computers as my hobby

I started hacking with an old ATARI 260 ST, which I mostly needed to code some demos. My next machine was a special one: A NeXTstation color. Of course I installed NEXTSTEP on it, which is a great operating system and graphical user interface. You know why, if you ever used it (there is an effort called GNUstep to create a free implementation of OpenStep).

My current machine is a DELL PC with the free Linux operating system. Even though I have a PC, there is not one single piece of Microsoft software on it.

Places to find me

I used to be on the farmer MICS chat at ETHZ. Unfortunatelt it was turned off in summer 1999.
Then I was hanging around in the ee-MOO, an educational MOO at the Department of Electrical Engineering at ETHZ for quite a while. It can be reached as follows: telnet ee-moo.ethz.ch 8092.
I wrote an Article about EE-MOO for the Visionen.
Skype user id is felixrauch.

What I do

When I was still active on NEXTSTEP, I coded on FileSpy , my logfile observer.
Sometimes I surf through the net, but I woun't give you a list of web-pages, as this seems sensless to me. If you're looking for
something specific, try one of the following search engines:
- Google!
I am a member of the managing board of the NiCE - NeXT User Group Switzerland.
I am also the maintainer of some Usenet pages. They contain hints about the Usenet in Switzerland as well as the Netiquette and other interesting Usenet-materials. You might be interested in them if you're new to the Usenet.
Further, I was president of the SIUG - Swiss Internet User Group.
