I have been studying linux the last few months, plus being taught how to install gentoo linux by Andy at ABC Computers in Apple Valley. I just want to have a chance, and learn, I know there's a lot to learn. But I'm the type of person who loves learning all kinds of technologies involving the web, from client to server technologies.
