Greetings from the land of free walking polar bears!


I am really hooked on GNU/Linux. Not just because the software is great, but mostly because of the community and philosophy among FOSS-users. Everybody helps each other, share their knowledge and experiences. It is just like a good, functioning family.

Hello and welcome to the forum

I'm going to guess you are in Alaska but I easily could be wrong.

Regards...

Yeah, Stockholm is a little too far south for that, I would think!

From what little I've seen of Sweden on Google Maps and photographs, you have a beautiful country, the southern part very similar (in vegetation) to where I live.

Welcome. A Norwegian friend once told me he had managed to convince some Americans that homeless people there were attacked by penguins.
Sadly not seen much of Sweden only having been on a shopping trip to Charlottenberg.
