Salutations and greetings everyone!
As a "com-PEWT-er PSY-entist" for something close to a quarter of a century, methinks it's time to try something kinda new -- blogging! -- about something that's been an integral part of my life and career, which is, believe it or not.... Linux.... [imagine that!]
In the early '90's <e-Gads!> I was introduced to the Linux kernel by a friend of mine while I was working at the local baby Bell and from the moment I successfully compiled the .97 kernel I was *ENTHRALLED*. An opportunity to work on the craft of *NIX and know that *EVEN* *IF* I did literally *destroy* a system [which <cough><cough> Yes I *did* as a consultant at one time, maybe three <cough>] I could somewhat quickly rebuild it.
From 1.02 I jumped to Slackware and then to Red Hat and then wandered to and fro, from Gentoo to Knoppix, from the multimedia "Element" distro to variations of the Ubuntu system, including the Ubuntu Studio I currently run on my main development server, enjoying opportunities to learn and compare and expand my true geekiness, and maybe I'll get a chance to show that here once I understand the bits and pieces of the blogging tools that I want to learn...
Thank you so very much for taking the time to read this far -- DethB4DCaf
