Some of my interests are:
Chess; Computers; Genealogy;
World History (prior to the 1800's);
Reading (horror, fantasy, historical, sci-fi, and espionage);
and a multitude of other things




Over the past couple of years, my interest in GNU/Linux and other Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) has grown. I currently run a mixed environment at home with Microsoft Windows products and two flavors of Linux; Debian and Slackware. My preference and majority of use the GNU/Linux systems, even as a desktop OS, has grown along with my general interest. I only keep Microsoft Windows around for gaming purposes when I find the time to play one. At least until the time that gaming companies start producing games for GNU/Linux the way they do for Microsoft Windows systems.



The FOSS community has been under attack lately from a couple of different directions. Mostly from one direction, but indirectly from no other than the convicted monolopist in Redmond, Microsoft.
