That's too bad. So far I've noticed that the ratio of male to
female Linux geeks is quite high, but when I've been at trade
shows or LUG meetings I've never felt that women were unwelcome
at all. Of course, I'm a male - so maybe I missed something?
Frankly, I'm all about anyone that I can talk Linux with. (Or
Free Software, Free UNIX, PC maintenence, the finer points of
Vim, PHP, MySQL...whatever...)

Good luck! I'm sure that there are plenty of opportunities for
a talented Linux geek.
