Hello everyone,@wizardfromoz @captain-sensible @Condobloke @Rob @atanere
Being a new Linux convert has been a most pleasant and unpleasant experience for me.
That might seem like a contradiction, but I assure you that it is not.
Let me explain. I'll start with the 'most pleasant' part first.
I have learned so much about the Linux Operating System in this past year, that I am amazed at what I can now do because of what I have learned on this forum and other Linux websites. It has been an exhilarating time for me. For that, I want to thank all of those who have listened to my tales of woe for the past few months.
Now for the unpleasant part.
The one thing that most newbies seem to have in common is their impatience. I have been most guilty of not slowing down and digesting things. Hopefully I have changed a little bit along the way. {Thanks Wiz}.
Most of us newbies are in too much of a rush to do stuff, without realizing just how much learning we are going to have to do along the way.
So, I say to all "US" newbies - "S-L-O-W Down Just a Little Bit". Enjoy the ride. It is better than a thrill ride at an amusement park.
