“As you all know I am a Linux Lover. If you didn’t know
then you do now 🙂 I use Linux at home, at work and I will blather
on about it given half of a quarter of a chance. So what! You may
think. Just another pot bellied four eyed long haired geek who
still wishes he had his pocket protector. True, I am one of those
people, although I never had a pocket protector and my belly is
quite a bit larger than a pot 🙂 I was the same sort of person when
I was just as in love with windows as I now am with Linux. The
person I am has not changed, except for domestication caused by
marriage. Just the operating system.

“I still do use windows occasionally for some things at work and
for compiling the windows versions of my parts catalogue program. I
use windows so little that it does not even deserve a separate
partition on my hard drive. I run it under a virtual box session so
I never need to reboot my computer, which runs 24/7. Even when I
was a windows advocate my computer ran 24/7. Computers should run
24/7 so they can do work and plot with each other over the internet
about how to take over the world 🙂
