| Hi. My name is Venkat Raghavan. I have been using Linux for about an year and a half now. I pretty much learnt using linux the "hard way" doing kernel compiles etc. I encourage people around me to use Linux and have successfully converted a few friends and a lab to Ubuntu :). I spend about 2-3 hours on #ubuntu everyday trying to answer questions that people might have. | I have been using Linux on and off since 2002. After the Hoary release, I replaced by OS X installation with Ubuntu on my powerbook and have since never looked back. Ubuntu is an operating system I was very impressed with. (I used to use Yellow Dog Linux and Debian before. I even tried Gentoo,lol). It has a very friendly community, and makes it pretty easy to ask questions and contribute back to Ubuntu. I now run Mac OS X from within Ubuntu, thanks to the MacOnLinux project! I have installed Ubuntu on my ibook, on my friends Toshiba laptop, another friends AMD64 machine just to test out Ubuntu on various platforms. I also run a Ubuntu server at work. |
