Introduce yourself

[Her Ghost]

Hi, I'm Leigh, 26 from Manchester.

I work for an oil company as an analyst and play with computers and flamenco guitars in my spare time.

I'm currently dual-booting XP and Kubuntu 7.04 (64bit) but will be changing that to the 32bit version soon because it's oh so cold out here in the 64bit wilderness

Oh, and I'm not a girl. (Everyone gets that wrong from the spelling of my name)

Nice to meet you all.

I'm Jonathan, 22 from Manchester, regular at ManLug and LugRadioLive.

Using Feisty at the moment but switching to Gutsy as soon as possible!

I also have a web server which runs Dapper LTS, Apache/MySQL which I am very happy with, and a blog.

I dual boot Ubuntu 7.04 (Primary) and XP (for games only) on my Laptop. I've been an Ubuntu convert since May 2007.

Good to meet you all.

There's a Manchester LUG? Might pop in one day if I'm back in town. 21, out in the wilderness of Stoke at present for various reasons.

Question, though. The ManLug website says you're in the Kilburn Building. Isn't that the maths tower that got the chop a couple of years ago?

Nope, it's the computer science building:
