Hi everyone,
I joined the mailing list yesterday and I thought I would introduce myself.
I am a woman. And I work and live in Ipswich. I’ve been interested in
GNU/Linux since 2002/2003.
The first distro I saw and got installed on my HP nx9020 laptop was
Slackware. Someone told me ‘if you learn Slackware, you will be fine with
any distro”, so I gave it a go.
I used to work on Windows 98, Windows XP and HP, HP-UX.
The job I do now has nothing to do with Linux or computers. I neither am IT
professional nor a geek. (OK, maybe a very little one:))
Today I use Ubuntu on my old HP nx9020 and Windows 7 on my brand new, shiny,
lovely ThinkPad T420s. It’s just a few weeks old baby and the only reason
it’s got Windows 7 on board is that I was curious how it looks and feels
like and if it’s any better than XP. I’m not impressed. Actually, it annoys
me more and more every day. So, the time to install some nice and working OS
is coming.
I like reading books, walking, chatting on IRC and learning new things. I’m
not a very talkative person (as for a woman!) so you may see me hanging
quietly at #ALUG quite often.
So, this is me. And I look forward to chatting to all of you ALUGers!
Krystyna
