What has your experience with Linux been like so far? How long has been your Linux journey? Mine began while I was studying computer science, and I’ve been in love with Linux since.

      Internet access was more complicated back then. If you didn’t have a second computer or couldn’t dual boot into a working OS it was a big problem. And there wasn’t a lot of Linux users back then either.

        yea no way i would have been willing or even able to troubleshoot it at that time.

        i just gave up until ubuntu came around many years later and just worked.
