UNIX admin since pre-Y2K. Linux user since the Windows Vista Fiasco of 2008. MCSE, MCITP, CompTIA A+, Network+, Server+, Security+ and iNet+ certified. Hey, I love Linux, but Windows pays the bills. Going for LPIC certification next. My desktop system is a Shuttle barebones system with an AMD Phenom II dual core 3.1ghz processor, 6gb of RAM, ATI graphics, 2 SSD drives, running Linux Mint Maya MATE with NO WinTel Inside! I also have 3 Dell laptops all running Linux Mint Maya MATE. Right now I'm using a Vostro 1014 with a Core 2 Duo, 8gb of RAM and a 60gb Samsung SSD. Originally came with Ubuntu 10.04, but upgraded to Mint 13 Maya MATE.
