Common

When did you first start using Linux and why?

My first Linux distro was Redhat 5.something. Must have been 1998 or 1999.
I wanted to see what that "Linux" is and if it is as good as some friends were trying to tell me.

How long have you been using the SMGL distribution?

Not sure about that. Maybe since 2002 ?

What piqued your interest in SMGL initially?

I tested quite a few distros and their software package dependencies were driving me nuts.
So I wanted to have more control about what is getting installed.

Flamewars

vi or emacs?

I used mc or nano most of the time. But I am getting used to vim lately.

KDE or GNOME?

I like GNOME for a long time, but switched to xfce4 when GNOME started to change in a way I didn't like.

BSD or GPL?

GPL is what I prefer.

Strictly personal

Do you have any family?

One brother.

What other hobbies?

Sports – jogging, martial arts, …

What kind of car do you drive? Or what is your dream car?

I own no car, don't want to, don't like them.
I like motorcycles (Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R is my favorite one)
