Biography:
Carla Schroder is a self-taught Linux and Windows system and network administrator who laid hands on her first computer around her 37th birthday. Her first PC was a Macintosh LC II. Next came an IBM clone--a 386SX running MS-DOS 5 and Windows 3.1 with a 14-inch color display--which was adequate for many pleasant hours of Doom play. Then around 1997 she discovered Red Hat 5.0 and had a whole new world to explore.Somewhere along the way she found herself doing freelance consulting for small businesses and home users, supporting both Linux and Windows users and integrating Linux and Windows on the LAN, primarily Linux servers and Windows clients. She is the author of the Linux Cookbook and the Linux Networking Cookbook for O'Reilly Media, the upcoming Building a Computer Recording Studio With Audacity, and has written several hundred Linux how-tos for various computer publications.
Now she is the managing editor of Linux Today and LinuxPlanet, and still gets to write the occasional crunchy howto.
Carla is living proof that you're never too old to try something new; computers are a heck of a lot of fun; and anyone can learn to do anything.
