I am a 50-ish South Dakotan that started long ago with a Vic-20 for a 
hobby, then (much) later Caldera 1.2 thru 3.1.1 on home built boxes. 
Since then I have tested most of the major distros and for raw speed, 
power, & configurability I have all three of my boxes running Gentoo 
(thanks, Collins!). Recently I converted my younger brother to Suse 
9.1 Pro (thanks Novell for the freebie). One less family member 
calling me with broken Microsoft problems is a plus.

List, keep up the good work! Lots of changes and new faces since the 
Caldera 1.2 days, but still the best source of Linux info, support, 
and *entertainment* on the planet.
