It was my very first one, Slackware 2 with kernel 1.0.9.

I still remember the main feature being announced was the early support for elf format.

Nowadays after a decade of jumping between OSes, I just settled on Windows, for better or worse, it does better what I need for my work (please don't start a flame war on this).

However I do owe a lot to Slackware, as before it my only access to UNIX were expensive Xenix, Aix and DG/UX workstations at the university.



(please don't start a flame war on this).

tbh I think you already flamed yourself, charred to a crisp, worse than any of us here could do. Windows User.


I don't see Windows User as being anything negative, given the pleasure I had in these 30 years developing for it, more than any UNIX platform I used in the same years.

But as I said, I don't want to start a flamewar about OSes and development tools available.
