= Background =
I started using Linux in 1995, when I found a RedHat CD within a computer magazine. Since then, I have used many different distros (Debian, SuSE, Mandrake-Mandriva, Fedora and more), until June 2006, when I installed Dapper and Ubuntu became my favourite operating system.
After a few months I started helping in Italian LoCo Team, and in October 2007 I initiated my journey toward MOTUness.
