0 Although I think that "expert" is preferable, I believe you can also use veteran especially if you don't want to focus on expertise, but on the length of time that a person has been using personal computers. 02br
00Think about these changes: 02br
02br
001-1 He is a veteran of personal computers. 02br
001-2 He is an expert on personal computers.
