Hello!
« on: February 09, 2013, 10:02:39 PM »
          Hi all!

     My name is Paul and I am from Romania. My job is electronics engineer and worked several years in research and development in the automotive industry. Now I got two years free to be with my newborn daughter and clear my mind.

   I used Windows for many years (home and to work, and I had enough of it), but lately having more free time I started to test a lot of Linux distributions. I confess that PCLinuxOS is the first one I used as the only operating system on the PC and I'm very pleased with it. Thank you all for your hard work, you did a really great job!
 
  I have read many things on this forum, and thank you for all the good advice; because I do not feel comfortable enough with the English language, I prefer to read more and write less.

              Cheers everyone, Paul

timprosu,

A warm welcome to you, from New Zealand. You have arrived at the right place here.

Check out the on-line PCLinuxOS magazine. Each month's issue means that interesting information is only an easy pdf download away.

The Sandbox is a great place to hangout too.
