I started using Linux in around 94/95. I heard some people say how cool Linux was. So after numerous attempts I got it installed and was booted to a command prompt and asked "What the fuck is so cool about this?"

I would turn out to be love at first sight. I've been using Linux since and I've been working at SUSE for 10 years this Fall.

I remember going to a Linux meetup in downtown Seattle in about the spring of 1993. I was surprised at the large number who attended, probably a couple hundred.
That's pretty awesome.
