My name is Matt, i'm 23 and live in the nashville area. I am a PC technician
for a consumer electronics chain. (fun with windoze) O.o I have been
using ubuntu since dapper launched, at first i tried several different
flavors of linux but always found my way back to ubuntu. I'm down for any
activities, I'm interested in bringing new people into ubuntu, furthering
peoples knowledge about what it is, and its focus. I am also interested in
Edubuntu in schools as a valuable tool, as well as getting financially
struggling families internet ready machines.
