My first experience with Linux was at 10 years old or so. I had a netbook that I'd installed Ubuntu on.
Flash forward nearly 14 years and I use Arch as pretty much a daily driver these days.
I feel old. Linux didn't exist when I was 10 years old, Linus was still in high school at that point. My home computer was a TRS-80 CoCo 2.
TRS!
Yeah, I'm only turning 24 this October, so that's much before my time. I've always found something charming about machines from that era. My grandfather has an Amiga 500 that he got back in the day that still works. Sometimes him and I play around on it just for fun.
I got an Amiga 500 when I was 7.....some years ago now.
