| Hi I'm Sam Azab born (1979), on a crusade to show people the power of Ubuntu Linux. A Computer Science graduate (1999) originally, but have since indulged into the managerial/administration side of IT implementation. Born to Egyptian parents with the mind of a Planetariun. I believe we as a species must better ourselves not just for us, but for the entire Earth as well. | I'm a 31 year old IT professional with over 15 years of experience under my belt. Currently working as a freelance consultant who's knowledge and experience has given to names such as Cadbury Egypt, El Hayat Medical Center, Weatherford Petroleum, Stream Global Services, and whose goal is to spread the idea of Open Source to everyone I encounter. I have been using Linux (Ubuntu, Red Hat, OpenSuse) for about 5 years now. |
