During the majority of my time working with computers, Windows was the operating system of choice. Reason being, it's all I've known. In 2002, I took a college course titled "Linux Administration" which entitled me to a few cd-roms of Redhat 7.x. While this course was nothing more than a few extra credits for me, I fell in love with Linux and went through the entire textbook a week into the class. It was a nice feeling to use something "different" than what I was used to.

...consider other distros like Linspire or XandrOS in your case. Since you call yourself a geek, a geek like me expects you to know that _Linux_ is the kernel ONLY. When you delve into mantioning distros, the headline of your story should reflect a particular subject distro. There are over 100 [Linux] distros todate. When KDE/GNOME and other software(s) are added to the kernel, the result deserves a name. Just my CAD$0.02.
