About Name

Former physicist, now an IT systems researcher.

Learning

Ph.D. in Physics (2003), B.Sci. in Physics, Applied Computer Science and Applied Statistics (1996)

Use

Currently use Lubuntu 13.10 and Peppermint 3. In the past I've used regular Ubuntu, as far back as Breezy, as recent as Quantal. Just prior to Lubuntu, I was using Ubuntu Gnome 13.04 in a VM. Since turning on 3D accelaration in the VM was problematic, Gnome 3 performance suffered. Hence, my foray into Lubuntu, since I had already been installing Peppermint 3 (another LXDE-using Ubuntu offshoot) on my daughter's and wife's computers.

Why using Ubuntu?

I like the basic concept of core Debian stability and package management, with extra developer effort added to support commercial and closed source where necessary to get something running well.
