About me
I'm currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Engineering at SSN, Chennai. My passions are cricket, music, open source and literature(not in any order). My first flirt with open source was when I used Firefox long back. My introduction to Linux was when I entered college, and it was nothing short of baptism by fire. My first distro was openSUSE 10, and since then I've used many other distros. My favorite and permanently installed ones are Fedora (Leonidas 11 as of now), Ubuntu (9.10 now) and Debian 5. I find it irritating when people say "I can't do that on Linux" and I make it a point to prove them wrong. I am currently involved in the SuperGrubDisk project. I love configuring Linux systems for friends and neighbours, and I'm a self confessed distro dinosaur.
