Support Media
Mainly on forums and IRC. You can find me as "cactaur" on ubuntuforums.org. You can also find me under the alias of "cactaur" on #ubuntu and #ubuntu-california on IRC on irc.freenode.org.
Linux Experience
Went through the "try as many distros as you can get your hands on" phase, and Ubuntu remained as the best one for me. I have some programming experience in Java, not that it's of much use currently in linux.
