New LL user just starting my journey in the Linux world.
I've been using computers since the Apple 2E and BBC at school, even had a MicroBee at home when I was a kid.
Thing is I've never really looked into how computers work or how they do what they do, more been a user of software and that's about it. I was more interested in mechanical things (bikes, cars, and trucks mostly) and making them go fast.
Fast forward to recently and I've fallen into a job at work that in some parts means I deal with computers on a deeper level using Win and Linux mostly so I've taken the step of starting to learn how things work and how to make them work. I'm certaly a noob of noobs in this regard but I'm learning everyday.
Up until about 4 months ago I didn't really know what Linux was, now I have 2 distros working, one LL 3.X on a 15yo Toshiba laptop (512Mb, 40Gb, 32bit) and another dual booting Win10/LM19.3 on a recent HP all in one desktop.
Thanks for letting me in and maybe one day I'll be able to give something back (might be along while tho ;-) )
