New user sayin' hello
Hi cats,
I'm in Canada (on the East Coast). I use an ipod touch for most of my ereading -but I've been known to borrow my mom's Kindle. I run Linux from home and OS X when visiting my mother. I use Calibre at home -and sometimes Stanza Desktop (on my old Win32 machine that really only gets used for Stanza and iTunes). Stanza on my ipod touch. I have tonnes of ebooks, fiction and non-fic -so many that I'll likely never get through them all, though that doesn't stop me from grabbing new ebooks ever chance I get.
Nice to be here.

CaraM: Here's a secret about 'technical people': they just want things to work. They pull their hair out in frustration as much as, so-called 'non-technical' people. The only real difference between 'technical' and 'non-technical' people seems to be that technical folk seem to get some sort of weird pleasure out of frustrating technical problems (it's a real 'love/hate' thing).
In the end we all want the same thing: useful tools.
Thank you very much for the welcome!

Everyone else: this seems like a great community, and I want to thank all who took a second to welcome me
