About Me
I started tinkering with Ubuntu on an ancient AMD desktop back when I still had to compile my own copy of Mplayer with a Terminator theme - awesome! Since then I've played with it in my spare time, worked for Canonical for 2 years and been professionally involved in 5 releases.
I am in constant love with technology, take lots and lots of pictures and if you've not spoken to me about Motorcycles then you've not spoken to me
