and before anybody starts picking on him for using windows, don't.

this guy is in exactly the same situation i was maybe 2 years ago, and i have fully enjoyed making my way out of the world of microsoft and into the world of computing, others can too.

welcome to the board, another arm!

welcome to the board, another arm!

when i first came here i was a windowsXP guy. when it came out, i was out there looking for my copy (until i found/acquired the corporate edition (no activation)). i lurked for a bit and read just about every thread, read the front page, and started to look for a better solution. and thanks to this site, i found linux. of course, last summer i found jaguar also, and i havent been happier with computers. i actually registered an account but lost the password about 2 months earlier. after a while with no response from webmaster, i registered another one  ;)  had i been belittled and flamed i probably would still be using windows.

anyways. welcome to the MES!  ;)

Hehe, I still remember Calum's first posts. He was using Windows ME back then. I wasn't registered at the time but I used to visit the forums from almost the very beginning. I was a bit reluctant to register because English is not my first language, but it looks like I can communicate now.   :D  

Anyway, end of rant, Arm's friend welcome to the MES forums.

Exact same thing here, almost.
I first came here as a Win2K user, and from reading all the post (as an unregistered user at the time) I started getting used to the idea of trying out something else and after a little while I registered and installed SuSE 8.0, still dual-booting though.
After I started to have some serious gripes with Yast I installed RH 8.0 and I've given up on Windows for quite a long time now

i remember when i first found this site...i was a member of Neworder.box.sk for awhile, and was asking a user, kezef, a question abuot linux. i looked in his profile and found his email addy had @fuckmicrosoft.com. i thought that was kinda funny, so i when to www.fuckmicrosoft.com and was amazed it was a site. i've always hated windows. (when i first got windows 95, i asked my dad (who knew the most of anyone in my house about computers) if i could put win3.1 on my computer again, but he just kinda laughed)

there was some anti microsoft people at neworder, but i liked this site cause there was a high concentration of the haters.

I found this place trying to find sites to link from my then-crappy site. I thought, "hey I wonder if anyone has fuckmicrosoft domain!" so I ended up here. Looking back, even as a Mac user back then too (never owned a copy of Windows in my life, thank you), I'm surprised at how much Microsoft stuff I used. IE, Word, Win Media Player, now I'm completely Microsoft free thanks to these forums.
