Ah, Free Pascal. It made me remember the first semester at my University where everywhere I looked I found Microsoft. I refused to do assignments and projects on Windows, preferring instead Linux (Slackware, then). In the first semester we studied programming in Pascal and I used the Free Pascal compiler on my Linux to learn and play with the language, while everyone else used Turbo Pascal on DOS/Windows.
