Home Sweet Home

I've been using #! for a couple of weeks now and feel I found me home. The installation was a doddle, I love Openbox, and it all just looks very well designed (the 'Shutting down, please standby' message  always makes me smile - great eye for detail).

I'm running #! on an Acer Aspire 3000 (built early 2005) and it runs like a train; much faster than Ubuntu did on the same machine. Much as I appreciate what Ubuntu is doing for Linux it's not a distro that's well suited for people who don't buy a new computer every other year.

Probably won't be a very active on the forum as I'm not the greatest Linux expert and because everything just seems to work - I didn't even need to make an effort to set up LAMP. I would be interested in helping where I can. If it's of any use, I'm a native speaker of Dutch.

Groeten!

Re: Home Sweet Home

hi Beepmode, welcome to the community! don't worry about your linux-skills. you don't need them to be an active member of the community. you can just keep the mood up as well, by hanging out in the off-topic section and talking about music, movies, beer, coffee, food or smoking.

rhowaldt... you summed up the six main interests in my life there (in reverse order).

I'm impressed, will check out the off-topic section straightaway
