Hello from Sweden...
I'm a guy from Sweden who's very new to Linux. Most of my Linux time has been spent on VirtualBox... not actually 'doing' anything, just playing around "because I could". But last week I began to experience it as 'tool', when I sat with a problem at work that seemed unsolvable and suddenly trying in Linux solved everything so easy and fast that I hardly believed it was true. The heavyweight computer on the work server caved in, but my own virtual lightweight did it "just like that"
After this experience, having seen a bit of what it's true power, I will sure trying to learn more.

Thank you very much. I'm going to be a frequent visitor here. I have very little experience with using the actual TOOLS in Linux, but in only the first couple of days of my membership people have already given me great help to solve problems... help my employer now was one step away from paying others for. I rarely fail to get the job done with my own box of tricks and I'm very grateful for the help I got here, so I could avoid any dents in my "the man to turn to"-reputation.
