If you don't want to read a sappy post you should probably stop here
Hello everyone,
I just wanted to share with you all that I am very pleased with Debian (Sarge), the community forum, and even w/myself a bit. I started thinking about and attempting to install various linux distros in January (which coincided w/changing my dissertation topic). Throughout Jan & Feb I had a few false starts w/linux & debian, but kept plugging away (and reading). Anyhow, as of last Sunday, March 5th, I feel like I have a functional system, my only major hardware issues (this doesn't include the list of conceptual understandings I still need to acquire) left to conquer are getting the printer set up and tweaking my monitor resolution (which I am working on). I am looking forward to being able to contributing to the debian community!
My thanks at this point go to this supportive forum, the debian women's irc, the www.debian team, the Debian Bible & Debian System books, and of course my patient husband & my 3 cute furchildren (canine)! Ok I'll stop now!
Have a great week!
