Nice to see another Brit knocking around the place :)

Hope you stick around, though things get a little boring here due to lack of stability issues (unless you're willing to package or test of course ;D ;D).

And right back at ya! Welcome to the craziest, yet friendliest forum  :D

Take Meemaw's advice - the magazine has lots of stuff helping to learn the way the different flavors of PCLOS work. You learn a great deal, and it's just as entertaining.

The knowledge base will surely give you pointers in case you have questions regarding hardware and/or software.

And if you run into a problem, or simply want to hang out (see the sandbox), you're always welcome to give a shout  ;)

Enjoy!
