Yes, am from the largest Open Source pushing, sponsoring and active development company on this planet but from the next financial year onwards (April) am going to start my own company
I work as a consultant specializing in Open Source solutions. Most of
my clients are small to medium size businesses or public libraries.
It's a pleasure to show people how well OS programs work and then
compare the total costs (licensing, installation, training, upkeep)
of OS solutions to proprietary solutions.
I am a tier two Technical Support Specialist with Equinox Software, a primary proponent of Evergreen ILS, and much of our work is also based on Ubuntu and Debian, as well as PostgreSQL. Two other opensource packages are within our umbrella, but Evergreen is our main scope.
Distribution: Debian Squeeze, Ubuntu 10.04, Lubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 10.04 server

Computer Technician
Sorry, my english conversation is very bad, i living in Brazil, South America and i am computer technician...
I work for home users and small offices, all time my clients use proprietary software, but in my home i use Gnu/Linux and promove it to my friends and my family, and of couse, my clients.
I not have new or modern machines, all my computers are old and descontinued, i have two machines P233mmx and one Athlon (PcChips) with Ubuntu 8.04 server, one old ECS notebook with Debian/Xfce, one PIII Coppermine with Kurumin (brazilian descontinued distro Debian based) and my principal as other Athlon ECS with Ubuntu 9.10, but i use Mandriva, D.S.L, Slax,etc.
All day i learn about Gnu/Linux and open source.
Well I am self taught and know how to fix it if it can be. 1999 I started selling Linux Boxes at my computer store. No money in free software that works. So I got out of it.
started with a commodore64 and just kept going.
I do hardware side of things. I have a bicycle shop now days right next to where it all started. well at least the first BIOS to the Blue Waters project, It will be the first system of its kind to sustain one petaflop that will come online next year.
not very smart with networking it was pretty boring stuff till it went VM.
love watching the first year student learning the kernel.

Hi jeremy,
I'm founder of The 1 Million Tux Project. Is that enough to be reflected?
