I started with Linux in the autumn of 1995 when I installed SuSE (back
then it was S.u.S.E. and they called it a German Slackware distribution)
in addition to MSDOS 6.22 and WfW 3.11. Linux became my main OS around
1997 when I switched to Debian but I still had DOS around (first on its
own partition, later with DosEmu) for some years, mainly to access
Fidonet. When I bought my Thinkpad three years ago the pre-installed
XPpro survived about 4 hours (seemed to be a nice OS to update the
firmware) then I decided to better use its disk space for my audio
files. Finally switched to Ubuntu warty because Debian needed way to
long to release sarge.
