Say hello

Hi, I am a german guy living in Portugal, 52 years old, working as brick/tile-layer, not a lot of work right now - thank u FMI and Troika - so I could spent some time in trying linux-distros.
I had no computers from 1995 - at this time I used geoworks - to 2006, then I bought an used IBM-ThinkPad and started this with suse10.1 and kept opensuse until now in version 12.1 as main-system
Meanwhile I had a look in a lot of linuxes, just seeing stuff around, the main-distros and a lot of smaller ones.

Lately I started to be in love with bodhi-linux, had a sideview to macpup also.

Now I seen #!, so cool!
I got both actual versions "stadler" and "waldorf" on different partitions on my still running ThinkPad, working fine with this PentiumIIIMProcessor and 768MBRam, but still I didn t checked all the possibilities to tune the system.
And I will have some questions! but these in the respective forum-sections

Like your forum, just had a look around in different threads, seems to be a relaxed atmosphere, what unfortunately is not standard in linux forums

I hope to have a lot of fun with #!

Hi there! I know what you mean about things being nice here. I'm almost not afraid at all to ask dumb questions!

In all seriousness, above my appreciation for the distro is my appreciation for this community. Questions get answered quickly, and the quality of the personalities here make me want to learn more and contribute, just to be part of the club!

Welcome.... to CrunchBang #!
Interesting computer History Martin.
I remember using Geoworks in the 80s... Really innovative and ahead of it's time.

thanx for the warm welcome!
I live between Lagos and Vila do Bispo, in the western and still wild Algarve, this for the curious ones

About geoworks: I really liked this one, managing my former distribuition-company with this, letters, estimatives, all the billing stuff, I handled everything with geoworks on (trying to remember) novell-dos7-OS on an IBMi486-sx25-desktopPC with 4MBRAM, 2000,-DeutscheMark, and I upgraded this with a better processor, cd-rom, bigger HD and 16MBRAM, some more 1000 DeutscheMark
I still have the original cds of geoworks, somewhere here...
Anyone knows what happened to geoworks?

Just for small-talk
