Yesterday, Megatotoro gave me a present. It was a funny T-shirt that I really liked:
Today, while I was wearing it, I realized that tomorrow is the anniversary of my blog.
So, after 11 years, I am still a Linux user.
Who would have thought?
My walk started almost by accident, with a modest Asus Eee PC with Xandros preinstalled (The legendary MiniMe!) I never thought that such a humble machine with change the way I use computers in such a profound way.
I was re-reading the first entry that I posted on this blog and a bitter-sweet wave of memories made me smile.
So much has changed since then!
I listed there some programs that I do not use anymore... Frozen Bubble, for example. How come I do not have that game any longer? THAT cute game was the deciding factor in ditching Windows!
But the world changes and so do people. New games come (Steam powered, he-he) and even the distros that I started using are different now. Everything changes.
Yet, I am glad that I can rely on my Linux computers, just in the same way like the day I quit Windows. Linux has truly made my work easier and less worrisome... (Boy! I've been online without an antivirus for 11 years!)
I should make the anniversary picture to decorate this entry. Yes, I should. Something with a cake and clapping hands. A celebration picture! (Or I could...)
HAPPY 11TH ANNIVERSARY, MANDRIVA LINUX CHRONICLES!!!
