About Me

Real Name: Steve Peterson

I am 51, a divorced father of two, and grandfather to five grand-children. I am a native of Tucson, but was raised in Southeastern Washington State. I returned to Tucson in 1999 and currently work for a local distribution company.

I spent 22 1/2 years in the U.S. Army and retired in 1997. Throughout my time in the military, I gained an invaluable and extensive background in installing, testing/troubleshooting, and inspecting Military and Government communications systems and facilities. Since retiring I have worked as a Network Operations Center Manager for a major Internet backbone provider in Maryland, an installation/troubleshooting/support supervisor for a commercial communications design and installation firm in Virginia, a Telecommunications Center Manager for a major Military Communications Contractor in Sunnyvale, CA, and dabbled in other miscellaneous endeavors, including some independent web designing.

I am an active member of the [:ArizonaTeam:Ubuntu-Arizona LoCo] team, and the [:ArizonaTeam/Teams/Membership:Ubuntu-Arizona Membership] sub-team. Using computers has become a 20+ years hobby of mine. Over the years I have built and repaired computers for friends and associates, as well as myself. I have been an on again/off again *nix user for over 20 years (mostly Unix during my military days). I have been learning and using Ubuntu Linux since Hoary (May 2005), and never looked back. Ubuntu Linux has been the most stable, and usable desktop operating system I have found to date.

In my spare time I enjoy various activities including (but not limited to) traveling, camping, hiking, bowling, tinkering with computers (troubleshooting/upgrading), a little computer gaming, listening to music, and watching the History channel. I am an avid outdoor sportsman, both fishing and hunting.

  • Ubuntu As a member of the [:ArizonaTeam/Teams/Membership:Ubuntu-Arizona Membership] sub-team, I am working toward developing community awareness of Ubuntu Linux, regardless of how the opportunity presents itself.

    Ubuntu I always carry a few Ubuntu Linux CD's around with me to convert the willing and curious. I have given out several Ubuntu Linux CD's to friends and associates.
