[mdlug-newbie] Hello LUGgers!

Hi Brandon,

I too am new to Linux and LUG.  I have used Macs for the past 10  
years, I occasionally used a box running open Suse, and only learned  
the true level of retardation of windows two years ago when I started  
college.  There was a short time I used a NEXT Station color, which  
was the aunix based predecesor to Mac OS X, but sold that machine to  
pay some bills.  Out for delivery today is my Asus EEE PC 100, with  
its own custom xandros.  I don't want to put XP on it if I can't find  
a decent CAD program available for a Linux distro.  Thanks for  
listening to me ramble, I'm sure I will have "TONS" of questions in  
time.
