Linux & Open Source
I started using Linux in 1997. I needed to replace a aging Sun server running a web server. Having a limited budget, I install RedHat 5.2 on a i386 computer I built from extra parts I had. It was perfect solution. I continue to find new uses for Linux in my job.
In 1999, I took and passed the RedHat Certified Engineer exam.
Ubuntu
I started using Ubuntu in 2004, when I could not get a new sound card and ethernet card to work under Fedora Core. I heard about Ubuntu listening to the [http://www.lugradio.org/ LUGRadio] podcast. I decided to try it, and sure enough everything just worked.
After that I learned more about the Ubuntu community and decided it was the place for me.
Contributions to Ubuntu
I'm an administrator and member of the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ForumCouncil Forums Council] on the [http://www.ubuntuforums.org/ UbuntuForums].

Plans for Ubuntu
