<P> <STRONG>Debian Geek:</STRONG> Debian is seen as the real hackers distro.
|
|
The character I drew is based on the hard core hacker. He is poor
|
|
and wears daggy clothes because thats all he can afford. He
|
|
tends to have long hair thats tied back and usually has that tough
|
|
distinctive goaty or unshaven look.
|
|
|
|
<P> <STRONG>Redhat Geek:</STRONG>This chap is the businessman, corporate geek
|
|
and usually tends to be in the older generation. Of course as you get older
|
|
you lose hair, put on weight and tend to need glasses.
|
|

|
|
|
|
<P> <STRONG>Suse Geek:</STRONG> I see the suse geek as a young guy, usually
|
|
from germany who might have blond or red hair and with plenty of freckles.
|
|
Not quite the hacker yet and not old enough to be taken too serious yet in
|
|
the corporate arena.
|
|
|
|
<P> <STRONG>Mandrake Geek:</STRONG> Ok... this one is good. This chap (baby) is
|
|
the new distro on the market(compared to the others anyway). He is always
|
|
seen as a new lunix user hence the baby look, and the distro is regarded as
|
|
one best for beginners to learn who might be migrating from windows to linux.
