Hi there :)

Postby kvv on Tue Nov 02, 2010 4:10 pm

Hi,

I am a graduate student working on Speech Processing at Rutgers University. I am a newbie to Linux Mint, but have been using Ubuntu on and off for the past 6 years. Now, I have completely fallen in love with this OS, and my Windows Vista partition has become 250 gigs of empty wasted space :D. Still keeping it, just in case.

Anyway, I would like to give kudos to everyone who is working on and contributing to Linux Mint, you guys have really set standards to what a good OS should do and what it should look like. I hope to be able help you guys, or any other awesome project in GNU, in the future.

Welcome kvv,

I know what you mean about an unused partition. I haven't booted into my XP partition in over a year. I keep thinking I need to boot into it to update my anti-virus definitions. :lol:
