Hi, everybody !

Me

Started in the world of linux in Spring 2003, with the help of Tony Minello and ashford. I'm a teenager, and hope to bridge the gap from people migrating from windows to linux. Also, my other personal goals are to make linux more attractive in the realms of p2p, emulation, and availability of documentation.

There's a lot of people who try out linux and get frustrated because they ran into a problem and can't find the answer. So, they dismiss Tux and never realize what could have been [if they stayed around !] Though I was about to give up on linux [and mandrake - GRRR !!!], I stuck with it, thanks to the people at justlinux, barry, and my own determination. So, when people seem to be at wit's end, I like to help them and guide them to the information that's out there.

Projects

- Founder of SLUG: St. Ignatius [High School] Linux Users Group The club probably has faded, due to the other commitments that I and ashford had senior year [and thus only attracted a few followers and was still unofficial club]. Had we actually did more junior year, it would have probably taken off, but I hope for the best Wink ;)

Through SLUG, I learned about how to run a group, cordinate meetings in centralized times and locations, and realize that Linux, right now, is near competant to attract teens who are above-average computer saavy. However, for the majority, who spend their time on p2p, AIM, and gaming; Linux probably won't reach there anytime soon, and seriously, that's fine with me.

- Member of CLUG - Cleveland Linux Users Group

Student at the kzoo - Hopefully there, I'll be able to use Ubuntu for all of my college work, and show it's possible to utilize Ubuntu in the college world !
