Topic: Let me introduce myself
hello, good people, how are you?
I'm a 19 year old computer enthusiast from uruguay and a few years ago i discovered linux and fell in love with it, specially i fell in love with how simple it is and how it is community driven.
At first I ised red hat linux (as it was the one that was installed in my school for a year) but then i realized it was far too difficult for me to use it 24/7 and so I set myself in a quest for an easier distro.
I found it, its name was ubuntu and i could even ask them to send me cds for free!! For some time I used it but it started to become too bloated for my taste, so i tried to use fedora (I admit it...I can't understand rpm based distros) and debian, but with the last one i just felt i didn't connet with the community, and so I was on the road again looking fr a new distro.
I used a few distros (arch, slackware, mandriva...) but none of them suited my needs, until one day i heard about this proyect one guy had, called #! (I thought to myself, what an awesome name!), and when I learned that it was meant to be minimalistic, that it didn't use gnome, KDE or xfce, but openbox, i was sold.
So here I am, trying out #! and so far, I'm loving it, it's light, fast, simple, awesome and the community seems to be really kind and friendly, so i'll be hanging around here for at least a while (a while I hope will las for a long time).
