My children and wife are my life!
Worked in the computer industry as a network engineer, living between Maine and Indiana for the past 20 years or so.
Love to write.
Love Linux, the community it has inspired, and most importantly, I can run my computer free, better than yours, even with all that money spent to "buy" your OS.
Oh yeah, I think I'm funny, (though I know looks aren't everything) and you'll laugh if you read my site posts!

Like I said, Microsoft was left behind and Linux found it’s new home. No more colored keyboard lights. Just the same old white back-lit keys I was used to. I was ecstatic! This was the first laptop I had installed Linux read more
Happy New’s Year…
Another new year. Still using VSIDO. Still hosting nixnut.com! New challenges coming up this year. Some health issues. I’ll post more news about that sometime around the end of January.
Hasn’t watching the news this last year been a doozie! Obviously the title of this post should read “Happy New Year”! The news, well forget that. I quit watching all that drivel. Nonsense…
Meantime, I’ve got the lappy so well tuned and setup I’m loathe to do a rebuild on it. It’s been forever since I did a fresh install. Testing for VSIDO, I’m afraid I’ve arrived at a bad habit, relying on testing ISO’s with Virtualbox. I have read more
