Who I am: Greetings from: Robert Gamble
  • Born in New Jersey
  • Moved to California when I was 9.

I remember it snowed in southern California the first year we were there. I had to laugh because the instant the snow hit the ground it melted. All the other kids thought it was a great thing. It was nothing like the snow in New Jersey. The best part about it was we got out of class for a while. Through junior, and senior high I was into electronics. I knew early in high school that I wanted to be an Electrical Electronics Engineer.
One of my friends, Wade, got me interested in U-Control airplanes. I built two balsa wood planes. The first one was the RingMaster. For some reason it flew with the outside wing high. The second was the Magician, it was perfect. Each plain has a 4 foot wing span, and used a single engine. We spent every weekend at the flying circles.

I crashed the Ringmaster the first time I tried to fly inverted. The only damage, however, was to the canopy, the propeller, and the tail section. While I could do many stunts, my favorite was the wing-over. That's when you go virtical over your head, then pull out on the other side. Boxes were also fun.

[Degree] In September of 1977, it was off to College. I went to California State Polytechnic University Pomona. My first three years were a blur. I took some classes that I had little idea of why I needed them to become an EE Engineer , but in my fourth year everything came together.

Also in the fourth year (1981) Cal Poly Pomona started a transformation. The engineering department started offering computer classes, and change their focus from Electrical Electronics Engineering, to Electronics, and Computer Engineering.

I got lucky, and was able to take enough of the computer engineering classes to (unofficially) graduate with an Electrical, Electronics, Computer Engineering Degree. My Diploma reads Electrical, Electronics, Engineer, but I had the computer engineering stuff as well.

[CNE] Right now I am working as an NDS Expert, along with other duties on the NOS/E-Mail Team. We have 65 Novell netware 3.11 servers, 12 Netware 4.1 servers configured on the NAVY_CONUS Tree, and around 60 +/- Microsoft NT Servers. We are in the process of switching over to a Microsoft network.

On 28 March 1996 I completed training for and have been Certified as a Novell Engineer. My CNE is for Netware 4.1
