@tomxcd I was just a poor boy, windows 98 didn't love me... and was giving me the blue screen of death quite a bit in the year 2000. I couldn't afford a new computer and didn't know where to get windows discs or how to fix it. I was chatting on mIRC and somebody told me about linux. I didn't have a cd burner, so a guy offered to burn me a couple cd's and mail to me. He sent me Mandrake Linux, maybe version 7.1 or 7.2. I was surprised by how easy to set up and how much free software there was!
