Hi Valbaca,

You have almost exactly the same computer as me, except I've got the 1280x900 screen. Welcome to Crunchbang.

Thinpad X200 + Crunchbang makes for awesome black minimalism

Having one more TTU fan will always great, especially when it seems like the whole world (including too many Lubbockites) loves UT. However, being the underdog is one of the great aspects of being a Red Raider...just like being a Linux user!

Hi #! community. Or in my native tongue: HOWDY Y'ALL!

For the past year I've been distro-hopping and would certainly consider myself a member of "distro-hoppers anonymous." Decent bandwidth, cheap discs, and unetbootin all make for a lot of trial, error, learning, frustration, and all the other things that go with GNU/Linux.

I was just about to hunker down with Debian when I came across Statler and fell in love. I especially like the --first-run script, which gives the OPTION of installing OpenOffice, developer tools, etc.
I would consider myself "advanced" in the ways of the penguin, but I hate bloated distros and don't want to spend hours getting  flash, codecs, wireless, and bluetooth all setup.
I see #! as a combination of all the good things about all the best distros:

  • Close to the upstream (Debian)

  • Lightweight & Customizable (Arch & Slackware)

  • non-free "goodness" (Mint)

  • Works out of the box & up to date (Ubuntu & Fedora)

I'm a senior undergraduate at Texas Tech University dual-majoring in computer science & electrical engineering.
I've been looking for a way to contribute back to the OSS community and plan to through Debian/#!

Enough software...now hardware:
Lenovo Thinkpad X200s - Core 2 Duo SL9400 1.86MHz - Intel GMA 4500MHD 1440x900 - 4GB RAM - 160GB HD - Intel WiFi Link 5300

Interests: Programming (C/C++/Ruby), Music (Techno/Industrial, e.g. Armin van Buuren, VNV Nation), Games (CoD MW2, PSN:valbaca)

(Sorry for long intro. I'm excited)
