Life without Windows or OS X

GNU/Linux is quite possibly the most important free software achievement since the original Space War, or, more recently, Emacs. It has developed into an operating system for business, education, and personal productivity. GNU/Linux is no longer only for UNIX wizards who sit for hours in front of a glowing console. Are you thinking about switching to Linux and want to learn how to use it? Have you been using GNU/Linux for some time and want to learn even more? This is the place for you.

18 years of open source software

On Saturday, September 10, 2005, I made my first post. I've used Linux for over 14 years, and Linux has been my only OS for over 13 years. I typically run Linux Mint, Arch Linux and Ubuntu with Gnome or Cinnamon. My favorite distro of all time was Lindows/Linspire, RIP August 2001-October 2007.

If you’re seeing this site for the first time, this is not a place just for geeks. It’s for those who like computers or computer software. I've been working with computers for a little while. In that time I've used a variety of environments. It is not my intent to debate the Open source development methodology versus the free software social movement. Also, this site is NOT anti-Microsoft or anti-Windows.
