I just love Debian, and have for about a decade. I'm proud of my contributions over the years in supporting and boosting both it and its users, as well as Gnu/Linux in general. Every time someone replies to one of my postings in debian-user thanking me for my help, it just makes my day. | I just love Debian, and have for about a decade.

I'm a fan of Unix in general with sixteen years of it to my credit. I've worked with most of the commercial Unixes as well as the *BSD's. I prefer Debian for its stability, ample support paths, the fast paced development of Gnu/Linux in general, and the Debian community. | I'm a fan of Unix in general with sixteen years of it to my credit, the last ten in administration.

Nowadays, I'm looking to get off this continent, away from North American based business' apparent addiction to bad software (hint: Redmond, WA). If I could spend the rest of my days bouncing from one country to the next, installing Debian on every machine I found and training users in its use, I'd be one gloriously happy man. See [http://www.spots.ab.ca/~keeling/banishaunixgeek.html Banish A Unix Geek] for a humourous take on the subject. | Nowadays, my plan is to get off this continent, away from North American based business' apparent addiction to bad software (hint: Redmond, WA).
