We Got Served

Howdy all,

My name is Matt Miller. You are going to be seeing my name popping up around here quite a bit in the future so I wanted to take some space to introduce myself. Terry has brought me on to invade We Got Served with the latest in Windows Media Center news, reviews, guides, and ideas.

Let’s start with the basics:

Name: Matthew Miller
Age: 32
Home: Mesa, AZ USA
Marital Status: Happily with two of the cutest little boys ever!
Occupation: Teacher
Qualifications: 24 years using computers, 18 years building computers, 14 years helping others buy and build computers, 4 years lavishing my attention on Windows Media Center

It is the last two qualifications I would draw your attention to. I lack the computer engineering degree, but happily claim the mantle of geek. That being said, I have spent most of my life using my geek powers for good by sharing my experiences and educating others on how to use their computers in new and exciting ways. I have even combined my interest in computers and education by spearheading a program to develop new techniques for integrating technology in the classroom. In the last couple of years I have been particularly interested in Windows Media Center and have converted a number of friends into WMC users as well. These are the passions I will be bringing to We Got Served.

I built my first Windows Media Center machine about four years ago. It was such a success that it didn’t take long for me to convince my wife to ditch the DVR from our cable provider and we haven’t looked back since. Since that time I have deployed WMC PCs for each of my kids and added two Xbox 360s which spend much of their time serving as WMC Extenders. I have plans for more in the future and will be sharing my past and future experiences and the lessons I have taken away.

While I have a great deal I want to share with the We Got Served community about Windows Media Center, I am looking forward to hearing from the community as well. Let me know what you want to learn about Windows Media Center and how our coverage of Windows Media Center can benefit you. If you already use WMC, join me in sharing your experiences.

Finally, watch for my WGS username: millpub

You will see it frequently in the forums and the comments. I can’t wait to hear from you.
