[seul-edu] Intro

[bgfay <rid24199@ride.ri.net>]

I just realized that I have yet to introduce myself--just sort of blurted out
in the middle of a discussion. My name is Brian and I teach middle school math
to at-risk kids in Providence, RI (USA). I've been working on computers, mostly
PC's since the late eighties though I briefly used computers in middle school
in the late seventies, early eighties.

I've been following the Linux developments for two years now and finally have a
working installation of Corel Linux on my home machine. I'm looking to install
something on my Toshiba laptop and am working up the gumption to get it done.
Also, I'm looking to pick up an inexpensive machine for school to start a small
Linux group with some kids after school. Our school is all Mac and I am persona
non grata for having PC's and thinking that they matter next to the Macs.

Last thing (promise) I've linked to our school's web site below and I am hoping
to take over as web master in the coming weeks so as to put up something a
little more functional. Speaking of that, I'm looking for a good Linux web
design tool. Unfortunately I'm hooked on Macromedia's Dreamweaver and they
haven't ported it to Linux (though I'm working on that).

And that's more than enough about me. I'll keep reading and see if I can
interject with anything useful along the way.
