I met Ubuntu in October 2010 after 10.10 released. Discovered by accident as i was looking for a program. Piqued my interest as a different OS as something i had never seen and as a Linux OS. I had never test before any other Linux OS. I was clearly a windows only user until then. I had never read before about open source and free software until then... then when Ubuntu booted for first time on my PC. '''Outstanding''' . Stable - Fast(very fast) - no drivers - everything worked out of the box and immediately.
I was quick ... dual-boot with windows.

My relationship with Ubuntu

Discovering Ubuntu and the free world

I first used Ubuntu in October 2010 when 10.10 was released. I discovered it by accident as I was surfing the Web. It piqued my interest as a different operating system and I never had seen before any free operating system. Until then I was clearly only a Windows user. I had never read before about open source and free software. Then Ubuntu booted for first time on my PC. Outstanding . Stable - Fast, no need for external device drivers, everything worked out of the box!

Currently

Currently I'm working in several projects focused more on our local Ubuntu(GR) team. Since Nov 2012 I'm an Official Ubuntu Member and I'm trying to keep my contribution in Ubuntu Community significant and sustained.

Future

I will continue using, testing and advocating Ubuntu and contributing in any way I can to spread FOSS and make it qualitative.

Contribution

Tutorials I've contributed in local Ubuntu community

Video Tutorials about Ubuntu can be found in my YouTube Channel, also in the General Ubuntu GR YouTube Channel(Greek Language).
