    At my old job i was called 'Mr. Red Hat" and was mocked for renouncing Micro$oft and embracing the 'anti-business' Open Source world...

    I write essays and creative writing homeworks all about Linux and it drives my teacher crazy. Also, for vocabulary homework I had to draw pictures describing each word. The word was "Machination" (an evil design or plan) I drew the modern Windows logo with "Windows XP Professional" above it, she got pissed haha.

    Hmm.. not much else, oh whenever I mention Linux or say cool Linux quotes such as "Avoid the Gates of hell - use Linux!" 90% of people will say "What's Linux?" the othe 10% that have already heard me rant about Linux usually flip me off... idiots. I can't wait to go to college.

    just a note, all those of you who love working large papers in html/css (for formating purposes) should check out LaTeX (don't google it straight... the results have little to do w/ what im talking about.. except number 6.. erotica *is* a document)

    Yes, I often read the number 9 as it speeds down Hagley Road in Birmingham. This doesn't make me a geek ... Just strange

    LaTeX is nice It's one of the few actually useful things I learned in Faculty.

    Hehe, I must say I'm on the advantage :P Most people here have heard of Linux and if you say you know Linux people think higher of you or even consider you a Computer Guru You're a Geek... but a cool one
