== About Me ==

My name is Jordan Montgomery, I am a 15 year old Ubuntu user from Kentucky and I've been using Linux(installed) since July of 2006. I first ran into Linux back in 7th or 8th grade, and I really liked the Ubuntu LiveCD, but I didn't want to do an install because my system was horrible and the CD drive was a bit finicky. Now that I have a newer system, I have 7.04 "Feisty Fawn" running on it. I do a bit of programming and web design with C++, Python, PHP, HTML, CSS and TI-Basic, but I'm not too good yet. I am on the Ubuntu-Kentucky LoCo team and I'm lovin' it. I hope to get a laptop soon, which, just like my home computer, will be strictly Ubuntu.  I have used many distros, but Ubuntu has kept me hooked. As of now, the list is(in no particular order):
 * [[http://www.ubuntu.com|Ubuntu]]
 * [[http://www.kubuntu.com|Kubuntu]]
 * [[http://www.xubuntu.com|Xubuntu]]
 * [[http://www.christianubuntu.com|Ubuntu CE]]
