Hi there..and good morning

[crosenblum]

My name is Craig.

Long time computer user since 1980.

I have had Apple 2+, wide variety of window's pc's, I have 2 original xbox's, 1 softmodded with xbmc, 1 not.

I am a formerly employed coldfusion/php programmer.

So I have a lot of time on my hands, while job hunting, to learn.

Atm, still dual booting winxp pro sp3 and linux mint 12.

I really am into media automation, working with tools like sickbeard, couchpotato, to automate my media center fun.

Still not 100% done getting my files renamed and put in the right spot but that's a topic for another time.

I really like linux mint, but honestly I still have a lot of learning to go. Considering as of yesterday was my 5th reinstall of linux mint, lol.

I need to figure out how to manage my music, audiobooks and video tagging and synching with my ipod.

I always hated itunes for windows, biggest pile of crap software ever, but i had to use it to get what i want onto my ipod touch.

Thank you for the momentary glance at my rant's

Have a great day, and hope to hear from any or all of you as you wish.

Craig

Hi Craig, welcome to the Linux Mint forums Thanks for joining the forums! Sounds like you have a lot of fun with computers; I hope you will continue to enjoy with Linux Mint.

Be sure also to check out the Community website (ideas, tutorials, and hardware and software reviews), and the Cinnamon Spices website for adding themes, applets and extensions to Cinnamon (and check out the Cinnamon Extras package, which will install a lot of these for your automatically). If you haven't installed Cinnamon, see here the most recent update for a teaser.
