Hello all!
I am from the United Kingdom, Hope you all enjoyed the royal wedding!!
I started using Ubuntu in 2009 and from there to Debian and Arch.
I got in to Linux based systems because in 2009 my HDD died and had no way of using my PC for college. So I knew you could run Ubuntu off a CD in to memory without needing to install and so I did but what blew me away was the fact that everything worked out of the box, my scanners and printers and Wifi Dongles and without me needing to do a thing. Due to no money I could not replace my HDD and because it was an old IDE no PC world store had any. I used the Ubuntu CD for months. I could bore you with all the long details all day but i'm not here to write a book lol.
I haven't used a PC properly since 2016 and allot of my Linux Skills have gone down the drain so I am here to hopefully get some of that back and hopefully see someone who needs help in the forums and the problem they have rings a bell and I can help. Linux Lite has become my favorite distro because its implementation of XFCE is perfect and its got the right balance of preinstalled apps. Hopefully I get time to fly around these forums and chat to some people! Good day!
