Hey there friends!

[bender1077]

Greetings and salutations good members of the Mint community!

Mint10 is my first attempt at utilizing a Linux distro and am enjoying myself so far. Too much to learn!

I got interested in linux from using and modding Android handsets. The more I learned I decided why not install linux on my desktop! So I am now dual-booting Mint and Vista, eventually working my way to making my desktop 100% MS free. Looking forward to being a part of this community, and hopefully will be able to contribute later on.

Here's just a few things I love:

- Futurama
- Math jokes
- Strung Out (fav band)
- Hockey (bit of a hockey glove nut)
- Fine Craft Beers
- 90's hardcore punk
- Dogs
