Hi,

Since I'm a Debian Maintainer [1] I primarily used Debian, but I also 
work for Intel and optimize code for ClearLinux, so I also run that too. 
I'm an ex-Ubuntu Kernel developer [2], so I also have some legacy 
machines running Ubuntu. I use Fedora at work on large systems.

I kinda miss using simpler distros such as Slackware, I was using that 
back in the early 1990s :-)
