A little about me, I’ve been in and out of Linux since the beginning with various distros. Most of my professional life has revolved around Windows as a Windows admin in large Windows shops. Because of my Linux experience, I’d always get tossed the occasional Open Source project. So I have a pretty good familiarity with Linux in general. Windows, has earned me a fairly decent income over the years and I’ve not had many Linux opportunities that were as consistent as M$.
Home wise, I ran Windows on my workstation, primarily because of gaming and work. What’s changed you might ask. Linux appears to have changed and for the better. I used to think Mint was the easiest install for Windows people. Everything just worked out of the box. I like to tinker a bit more and Windows gets in my way, a lot and much more in the last 5 years.
I’ve been reading a lot about how far gaming on Linux has improved, many thanks to Gabe. So I’m curious, can I live here yet? I don’t know…Can I do my work from my home workstation? I can answer that, yes. Can I game on it, with the games I like? I don’t have an answer for that yet, I think it’s a maybe. I’m just now beginning to explore Steam/Proton, but I need to get my controller working, so there’s that.
EOS slid onto my hardware effortlessly. Thanks to the EOS devs and the community for this.
So Hi! I’m happy to meet all of you!
