I have been using various Linux distributions for more than ten years, mostly Debian derived, but also others. In spite of all this experience I'm still an eternal newbie. Various Puppies have prominently figured in the mix. Now I'm trying Sparky for the first time and I'm greatly impressed.
I'm an old man, an original Bostonian now living in Northern Virginia.
