Hey, I'm an American currently plodding though his second year in college.

As you can probably tell from my being here, I have a sizable interest in computers, both on the hardware and software side of things. I experiment a lot with various operating systems, my current favorites being Ubuntu and Slackware GNU/Linux.

Hi there.

If you like doing things yourself, you might want to try Gentoo and FreeBSD. Have fun. =)
I'm x^10 + x^8 + x^5 + x^4 + x^3 + 1, so don't mess with me!

I've used them both. I didn't think too much about Gentoo, but Net- and FreeBSD work pretty well for servers and homemade routers and firewalls. Using them on desktops requires jumping through a few hoops, but it's feasible. I haven't tried OpenBSD yet.
