Hi and welcome!
It so happens that the "industry" I'm in, has actually less to do
directly with computers:
Personal development or "
Know thyself", which sounds better for me. So It's very nice when you meet people from different backgounds on this common ground, known as "Computers and IT".
I've been using computers since February 1995 which here, in România, it's quite some time...
I shifted gradually from using computers to make my living (this was somewhere back in 1997 - 2006) to using computers to find out more about my internal potential and obviously, to find ways to develop existing and new skills.
So, I enjoyed very much your presentation!
I wish you a pleasant and joyful experience with Linux Lite!
