I began tinkering with Linux about 6 months after it's inception. I think....think...it was what became Slackware in what I gathered up the things to make it run on my Micron Pentium.

This was in the day I was trying everything on that machine. I had DOS running on it at one point, then OS/2 Warp, then Windows 3.1, then Linux, then back to OS/2 etc etc. It was at a time where everything was up in the air, before Windows 95 took a major foothold.
