Howdy, y'all! Yes, we actually say that in Oklahoma.
I have a real name, but online everyone calls me Red. I don't know why or how it happened, but hi, I'm Red.
Let's see, I'm GenX, so that should explain a lot right out of the batting cage. Grew up in Radio Shack, got my first Tandy in 1986. Don't ask for specs, I can't even remember. I do remember it didn't have a hard drive and only one 4" floppy drive. What a beast. Did some BBS with the telephone for awhile, and of course, it evolved from there.
Been using one flavor or another of linux for about 20 years now. Looking back, it truly amazes me how far we've come. Don't get me started.
hmm... I have two pests, oh.. excuse me, two cats. I live in Tulsa in a little house on the west side. Will be moving north of town about 50 miles in a month or so. "in the country" as they say.
I know a thing or three about Linux. I'm not a very good programmer, but I understand what I'm looking at most of the time and am comfortable using what people post if it looks right to me.
I've decided to make a go of it here, because the people seem really friendly and don't YELL at me if I ask a simple question.
I look through threads and will contribute if I think I'll be helpful, otherwise I keep my mouth shut.
Think that's all for now.
Y'all take care now, ya hear?
Red
ps. I'm 51 and GenX, so don't mess with me or I'll rip off arms and start swinging.
