whats the Gender Profile

Hi

Always wanted to know if there was a gender angle to Linux as well. So what gender are we.

The third option is for the gender neutral - some such folks do exist in India.

Still male, but at 60'ish "Gender Neutral" is becoming more accurate.

Yeah, 'olBob, at my age, the last thing I want to hear is that I'm not a threat.....but the truth is, as you said, I'm probably closer to gender neutral than I'd care to admit.

Actually, my step-daughter (11yo) and I both use Linux. I started just over two years ago and Mary started about two months ago. She has installed 3 distros and has compiled several apps from source, the last distro and a few apps without any help from me at all. She now does all of her own maintainence as well.
