Where do you call home? What is it like? IE: weather, scenery
I have been living for more than 30 years in the island of Crete in Greece. It's a beautiful place, has great beaches, but also high mountains. It's filled with tourists at this time of the year … hot, but not as hot as other places in Greece.

I went to school in Aigio a small greek city, and then finished the pedagogical department of University of Crete in the city of Rethymno.

I play electric and acoustic guitar (played for many bands here). Also I play tennis, and of course, "play" with my computers.
Why and when did you start using Linux?
I started using Linux in 2009. Accidently read a book from a magazine about Linux, and loved the philosophy of free software. I installed it side by side with Windows for about a year, and then wiped out Windows.
What specific equipment do you currently use with PCLinuxOS?
For the last two years, I've used PCLinuxOS LXDE on a Compaq Presario CQ60 as my main system. The laptop has dual core CPU and 3GB of RAM.
What would you like to see happen within PCLinuxOS that would make it a better place. What are your feelings?
It is an awesome place to be anyway! The forum is great and I am always finding answers, most of the times just searching. I hope that more people will learn and use PCLinuxOS in the future. It is a great example of how Linux should be for the desktop users: fast and simple to use!
