User:StevenBirnam

This user is a software marketing consultant, and specialist in Document Management (Document management system), Workflow, and Knowledge Acquisition and Processing

This user has owned a Dalmatian and an Airedale terrier (in reality, this user was owned by both dogs: this user just provided food and shelter, and convinced himself that this user trained them)

This user has migrated from Microsoft Windoes to Linux, and used Ubuntu, before moving to openSUSE linux. To complicate matters, this user still maintains Windows and Ubuntu systems via SUN Virtualbox, but still is ticked that Apple and Google still won't provide their Safari and Chrome browsers for linux platforms.
