Hi all, I've been asked to "send a short description of why you're interested in Linux to the mailing list" - so here it is.
I've been into computers since 1982 (ZX Spectrum - Z80) and am now self-employed helping people with their Windoze machines. I like the politics of open-source software and I thought I'd better learn Linux before I die. I'm very, very old (58). Also, the Reindeer is a decent pub - do they still brew their own beer?
Welcome Phil, Age is not a barrier to ALUG we do not discriminate at all. We've even been known to allow the odd Windows user in! :-)
May all your computing become `free'.
Cheers, BJ
