Hey y'all!

I'm a newer programmer, only been programming seriously for about a year, but have been dealing with computers since about 3 years, from running a private gaming server to hacking windows to finally running linux for the programming haven it makes for me that windows never could.

I started programming on a windows XP machine, and my hard drive failed so now I deal with my gargantuan hard drive of 1.5GB, then I found linux, and it pretty much saved my computer life... (In addition to allowing me to relieve my security fanaticism) Now I use linux with all my development tools and I have plenty of space to spare

So, on to my programming experience
So far I'm pretty good at Java, a advanced beginner at Python and PHP/CSS/HTML, and a little knowledge of C/C++/VC++, and retired at the .NET languages since my transition to linux.

Right now I'm working on my website to publish whatever I make, and a hosts file manager ( http://en.wikipedia....wiki/Hosts_file ) and all the time trying to improve my install of linux

So anyway, see you all in the PHP, Java, and Python forums!

Hey LinuxFan, welcome to </Dream.In.Code> I'm Alex6788 a C++ coder (and windows user )

This is a nice introduction. I've been programming for about four years but started on C++ early last year. I love root beer too! but it's not my favorite beverage. I'm suer you'll be of great help in the PHP, Java, and Python forums.

Enjoy the site

Thanks, Alex6788, and I sure hope I can be of help in the forums - I added a python snippet my first day on </Dream.In.Code> ! (Admittedly, I already had it lying around, but still... )

Thanks for the greeting and good luck with C++!
