I'm happily running Mandrake Linux 8.1 on a 1GHz Athlon T-Bird CPU,and I'm glad to be doing my bit for science at home. I'm a co-administrator of INFJ-L (Introvert iNtuitive Feeling Judging), the largest and oldest mailing list for that Myers-Briggs personality type on the Internet; my day job is at the Idaho State Liquor Dispensary.
