Greetings,
My name is Ian MacGregor, I use the nickname "ardchoille" online, and I am a
member of Clan Gregor. My nickname (ardchoille) was taken from the phrase
"Ard Choille!", which is Scottish Gaelic for "To the high trees!" - the war
cry of my clan. My Fedora wiki page can be found at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ardchoille42

I served in the US Navy, as a field medic (NEC HM-8404), where I visited
several countries and participated in UNITAS. Fraternities I joined during
my time in the US Navy include Order of the Golden Dragon (crossed the
international date line), Order of the Ditch (passed through the panama
canal), Order of the Shellback (crossed the equator). I also served in the
Texas Army National Guard.

I have been using computers since 1983 and building computers since 2001. I
have been using Linux since it became my primary operating system in 2001. I
started my Linux journey with Debian GNU/Linux. From there I went on to use
Fedora Core (fc1, fc2, fc3, fc4), Mandrake Linux (now Mandriva), MEPIS,
Ubuntu, CentOS and am currently using Fedora 13. Fedora seems to be the best
distro for me due to its sane defaults and its outstanding community.
