Haeze

Steve Zap, AKA “3Z3VH” or “HAEZE” began gaming back when he learned how to use his thumb and forefinger to lift things. He started off with simple games like “Throw this over there” and eventually moved on to more challenging games with actual rules. Nowadays his favourite games consist of WoW, and Battlefield 2. He also enjoys networking and programming.

Zap has been into computers since the age of 11, and started tearing them apart at age 13. He has been working in the computer industry ever since he was in high school, starting off at a software help-desk, and later moving on to become a network admin, then a Network Engineer. He currently works for US Ballistic Missile Defense, running games that make Command and Conquer look like Atari’s Missile Command.

Zap’s first computer was the good old Apple IIe, but the first computer he built and owned was a 486-DX66 with 4MB of EDO RAM and a 300MB HD (Don’t knock it, that thing ran Windows 95 when it came out!). Now, as of the posting of this article, he has an AMD Athlon 64FX machine with 1GB of OCZ Enhanced Latency ECC RAM, Radeon 9800Pro, a pair of Western Digital Raptor drives in a RAID-0 stripe, a 400GB WD JB-series drive, and Lite-On DVD Burner all tied to an Asus SK8V motherboard and wrapped with an Antec Sonata quiet-case, all running Windows XP 64-bit edition, on a gorgeous Dell 24″ flat panel.

Zap’s current position in EverLAN is that of Tournament Director and Setup Director in charge of designing the layout, power, network, and coordinating the big setup before the event.
