Hey Kees!
KvE> moved to Slackware when the discs from Walnut-Creek became
KvE> avalable.
I bought two CD sets from them way back when; 3.4 and 3.5 which had a live boot
CD. That was the first live CD I ever saw. I still have them but don't know
if they still work given the lack of a CD ROM around here.
KvE> If your past is in UCB-Unix
I started out with Solaris on an old Sparc station way back when. My original
computer experience was with VAX/VMS on a mainframe with 9 track tape drives
for IO. No CD ROMs back in those days but the Sparc station had both external
SCSI tape and hard drives at it's disposal. Also a whopping 42M of RAM if I am
not mistaken which back then was worthy of bragging about.
Those were the days eh? To be quite honest I don't miss any of it but can
appreciate the experience especially when dealing with more modern hardware.
Life is good,
Maurice
