Welcome to SSarge.net

SSarge.net has been around since 2002, with various different goals and uses. Now it sits as a server for myself to post what I wish. There is also the hosting of Laura Rodie's Music, and Second Stage Housing's site.

To the left you will see various topics and articles of information that has been useful to me over the years. Leave your comments if you find something useful to you.

Constantly changing something, I'll have lots to say and do to the server, and the sites on it.

A Fond Farewell To A Friend

There comes a time in everyone's life where you must say good-bye to someone that you know. Actually it happens many times throughout ones life. Though it does seem to make you think about why some people's time is so soon, with so many positive things going for them. I've known people that have struggled and fought a deadly disease, some have lived through the fight, others not so fortunate. Then there are people that manage to win the fight, yet lose to something different without knowing it existed.

Server/Computer Cabinet

So I decided to create a nice cabinet to hold my 2 servers and desktop computer. It had to be something that would keep it all relatively quiet, and yet still let the air flow. Using AutoCAD LT97 I drew up some initial ideas... Well, the initial ideas were done using paper/pencil, which then got transferred to paint via my Tablet PC. The design is relatively basic, but with a little twist on the air flow paths. Creating a maze for the air to flow should help reduce the direct noise being produced, so air mazes were added to the top and bottom panels.

Computer Repair

Got a computer problem? Need a cheap fix?

I have been a certified technician for most computer manufacturers since 2003. Trained as a Network Technician I also have the skills to adapt and connect multiple computers together in a home or configure basic server setups for businesses. My background also includes simple electronics to help find the hardware issues without needing to always replace the most expensive parts.

Located in East York (Toronto) Ontario, most locations are not a problem to get to. If the distance is too far, additional fees would apply for the travel distance. GTA service available only.
