Hello, my name is Johnny, a father of three. For as long as I can remember computers have fascinated me. From my first experiences to Windows 3.1 and MS-DOS to my more resent experiences on Ubuntu, I've loved it all. I first hear of Ubuntu probably 5 years ago. I was intrigued with a free OS, but never got around to installing it. Recently I finally took the plunge and set up a dual-boot with Windows XP. |||| '''Contact Information''' ||
