Devoted to hardware, servers, networks, connectivity, fiber, routers, switches, etc.

My name is Colbert Low and I will be your new editor for Gearater. I joined Know More Media in December 2005 as the editor for ITechTips.com and I'm a full time Linux/Unix Engineer for a Global Oil and Gas Company.

I am also a blogger for b5Media and I manage The Gadget Blog (gadgets). I also guest blog at my wife's website - Mclady.net (fashion, celebrities) and TheSMSGuide Blog.

In the next coming months, I hope I can provide readers like you, a different perspective on things related to IT hardware and software and other related matters from the perspective of a Law Graduate turned Unix/Linux Engineer.

We will also talk about interacting with other departments within the company.  We will explore how to support the computer illiterate parts of your company such as the marketing and sales department.  We will discuss how to get the bucks out of the accountants so you can get that gear that dominates!

Some areas that I will be covering include :

Network Firewalls

Server Hard Disk RAID Systems

Network routers, switchers

All in one Printers

Wifi routers

WAN accelerators

See ya and thanks for dropping by !
