Introduction

Hi all, my name is Steve Taylor. I've been using various distributions of the Linux operating system for around ten years now. From some tentative first steps with Red Hat on an old, spare machine (I was too scared to put it on my main box in case I wiped everything accidentally), to running a dual boot system with Windows and Gentoo Linux, to the present day where I mainly use Ubuntu. I have a more general blog at bort.blogsome.com, which contains a bit of everything. This blog is going to concentrate mainly on Linux tips, mostly to do with Ubuntu, and general PC related topics. Some of the old articles from there will be copied over to here, just to kick things off.
