About me

I'm a 15 year old French student. I started using Linux in May 2005 with a Knoppix Live-CD and I've been a fan of KDE since then. I installed Hoary on my laptop back in September 2005 and decided to gave a try to Gnome since it was Ubuntu's default environnement but I quickly switched back to KDE/Kubuntu and I'm running Kubuntu since then(even if I tried various other Linux and *BSD distributions).
