Look after computing (Linux, Solaris, WIndows), sat-comms, sonar, sea-surface and met sensors on research ships. No degree. Its sort of a hobbie that turned into a job :-)

I am a "senior" programmer in a gaming company for 4+ years. I am not linux guy, but I like it a bit. My friend bought an iphone, so I bought a n810 to protest and show how much I hate apple. I like to ear how much bad itunes is haha!

But anyway I was half serious. Maybe things will change in the future, however many new trends that affect Nokia company-wise start in finland.
The major options being Helsinki, Tampere (I spent there my first 2 years) and Oulu (too extreme for me).
