Glad to have found a thread i can post some positive comments in as opposed to my complaints in the selling & buying sections. 🙂

I`ve been using Linux now for about 5Yr`s 4 months of the 5Yr`s 8 months i`ve been using computers(not counting the C64 as a kid)

I was a bit of a late starter you could say and it was only the sheer dread i felt at the prospect of my young daughters being let loose on the big bad Internet(as it seemed to me at the time) that got me determined to stay a few steps ahead of them.

In some ways they all wish now that i`d never bothered. 🙂

Needless to say i had a few months using that alternative OS before stumbling across Linux but i`ve been a happy user ever since. Predominantly *buntu based but i have dabbled around.

Not been so deep into the tinkering side the last year or so as i had during the first 3 but only because i`d because i never had the time............

Not the type to try convincing all the friends & family to switch but boy i wish they would at times.
