    hi all

    Hi, my name is Will. My dad is a hard core microsoft fan. So I started using computers on windows 3.1. I am 17 years old. I started using Linux in 2001. The first version I used was Mandrake 8.0. My computer was not designed to work with it so not much of my hardware work well. I then moved to Red Hat 8 when it came out. Then Red Hat 9. After I heard that Red Hat was not going to be free anymore I went to SUSE for a bit. I didn't like SUSE that much. It held my hand more then i wanted. I then found Fedora and used that for a while. I then got new computer parts and didn't put Linux back on for a few months. I then got my friend into Linux and put Ubuntu on my computer. I like Linux. I am still a n00b at it. Which is why I am on this forum. I want to learn how to use Linux better.
