Hello all,

I just joined the group today.  I live in Ahwatukee, and was looking for
a user group.  So I'm proud to be apart of the Phoenix group.
So I'd like to introduce myself a little before I start posting.  If you
don't mind. :-)

I am Nathan England
I work for a mid-sized manufacturing company in Chandler who makes tools
for Intel, AMD...  if they actually bought them.. ha ha
I work for the IS department, system support level III.  (Can't find any
good linux jobs *anywhere*)
I'm 21, I've used slackware all my life...  well, the last 7 years of it
anyway..
I unfortunately know just about all there is for NT 4, 98, 95, blah
blah.  2000 is gaining at work, so I'm learning that quite quick..  
After a *loooong* day of fixing all of Microsoft's problems, I like to
come home to my wonderful wife and 1 year old (she'll be 1 on the
26th!!) daughter, and relax to my nice slack boxes. 
Ahhh, the calm.  he he

I grew up in a small town near Flagstaff.  Maybe 500 people in the town
year round, so the only friend I had at times was my little IBM XT..
all 13 MHz of it.  Until that wonderful 386 came out.  
Well, I've caught up with the times..  finally.

Anyway, that's me.. more questions, I'd love to answer them.  Now my
questions..

I've been reading some of the older posts today, and I have to ask, am I
the only slacker here?  This seems to be a predominately Debian group,
correct?  Or am I only reading the debian posts!?

I can't wait for the next meeting.  
03:00 at Denny's, right?  ha ha.

I sure am glad I found a group here!  I thought I was going to be by
myself.  After a year of being here, I haven't met anyone who runs
linux.  (only a few who know what it is!)
