yesssss. 1993 is when linux found me.

i loved alt-F[1-4] on a vga screen i somehow managed to get higher (character based) resolution.

when i started runing xwindows, i still bounced out to the console with (afair) ctrl-alt-f2?

and just a few weeks ago, I forget why, but i instinctively was able to get a console on a messed up (xwindows or whatever it is today) console. good ol console.
