santoI’d like to present myself so that when you read my comments posted on the new Technical Support Forum, you know more about me than my name in green and The Saint logo.

My name is David San José. I was born in Bilbao in 1979 and as far as I know I have always liked (or have been a bit obsessed with) technology and all sorts of plug-in devices. I was given my first computer when I was 9 or 10 years old. It was a Spectrum +2A which used cassette tapes. As soon as I got tired of playing, I started programming Basic and since then I have always known that I wanted to work with computers.

A few years later, I think it was 1996, I discovered the Internet, which changed my way of doing several things. Back then, most of my friends and family did not know how to turn a computer on. Imagine their faces when I told them I had an account in usa.net, I searched for information on www.altavista.com (no, Google did not exist), I had a website on geocities.com, I spoke with friends who studied abroad through IRC, etc.

Don’t think I’m connected 24 hours a day, I have other hobbies as well. For example, I like snowboarding, traveling, music, cooking (even eating what I cook), photography, going camping, going to the cinema… typical things, it’s just that due to my techno-addict profile I combine many of my hobbies with my great passion, technology. How?  By taking part in forums I am interested in, searching for recipes online, organizing my journeys through specialized pages, searching for information about movies, new bands, etc.

Cheers!
