About Me

My name is Billy D. Quinn, I am a Telecom IT professional and have worked in various telecom domains in the fields of building networks and fault isolation to restoration of all related circuitry, billing and Revenue analysis. I have experience in application Development, and utilization of Databases in CUDIX, UNIX, DEX, NEC, NEAX and IBM based system Administrations, in a wide variety of networking protocols and systems. I am an advocate of the open source movement in general and a staunch supporter of ubuntu in particular. I always seek a means to apply a computer and my skills to any situation and application !

I am now retired and living in the backwoods of Arkansas; sadly I have forgotten more than I will ever use .

My introduction to 'buntu was from that of a friend - grousing about Windows -. He showed me (K)ubuntu, I was sold ! I soon discovered (U)buntu and made the switch (sure did miss Kate) and in my efforts of exploration I discovered "ubuntuforums.com". After a period of reading and learning from the forum - I found that in reading others request - hey I know that situation ! I can offer my aid. Since those early days it is a rarity that I do not have at least 3 knotty threads active at any given time, as well as numerous "quickies".

I sit down before this keyboard and each day I ask, what can I learn today.

Buntu Bunny

I have gotten to know Bashing-om through the Ubuntu Forums. I am always heartened by his positive and helpful attitude. He's hung in there with me when I've struggled to resolve problems, and I have benefited from his help more than once. He has been a great asset to NewDocs, particularly during its formation stages. He helped make it what it is today.
