My fiancée uses Ubuntu she seen me using it a few years back and since she saw how easy it is to use and maintain. She installed it on her laptop and desktop she loves it so much she bought a Linux bible book to learn more she said she would never go back to using windows and she prefers it to a mac also. It's jus a myth that Linux is for geeky men my fiancée is a proper girly girl and far from a geek. Am even convincing my mam to convert as it's less hassle once you sort the graphics card issues out. So bottom line is women love Buntu just as much as men
The mind is the greatest weapon only the strong will prosper.

Taz here. Complete newbie. Frend installed Ubuntu for me and now Im trying to familiarise myself with it.
Hit a few snags along the way but determined to fix them!!
Hi folks,
I've been tinkering with Linux in one form or another for about 10 years, but only really started using it when one of my team challenged me to swap my laptop OS for Linux in exchange for him learning my speciality (Joomla) to redesign his website ... the rest as they say is history!
I run a business specialising in open source, and we mostly run *ubuntu, CentOS and debian distributions on our office machines & servers. I'm pretty much a gui-based person but learning bits and bobs when I have to!
I am not a coder (I know enough to break code, but that's about it!) but I am quite involved with the Joomla project (I'm on the Community Leadership Team) and my main areas of speciality are marketing, SEO, optimisation, and being rather fussy about grammar and spelling I speak at events and conferences on behalf of Joomla but also speak about women in technology, open source, and other related topics. I love meeting and talking to people so thought I would pop in here and say hello!
I use Kubuntu on my machines currently, with servers running CentOS and Debian which I manage.
Hoping to get involved a bit more so if I can help with anything give me a shout.
I do have a website here.

I use Ubuntu on my netbook. I'm using it along with an android tablet and android phone. I've been using it even more intensely ever since a few weeks ago my Windows Vista laptop suffered death by, err... screwdriver.
I don't have a notable website.

I am very frugal so when my son introduced me to Linux I was thrilled. I knew it was something I would love. Windows asks for money at
every turn you take to add an upgrade or new program or to tweak something you already have. I love problem solving and am very
analytical so I can handle the time it takes to fix an issue. I'm addicted to Linux. I will never go back to Windows OS. Now a Trusty Tar gal (Ubuntu 14.04).
