Happy Anniversary! It's been 10 (ten) years since I first installed Linux, or to be more precise, Slackware.

August 1994 was when it first happened, and me and a friend were messing around. Slackware came on quite a few floppy disk images, and I still have some of those floating around. For at least a few weeks we played around, did all kinds of cool things, networking computers, etc. We even tried to get a domain, but we were kind of out of the loop in that regard. Nameserver, wha?

It didn't last too long though at that time, maybe two months, as I had purchased a copy of NS/Intel from the university bookstore. But a few years later (1997) I came back into the folds and have had a Linux box running ever since.
