So that means that in 1995, you and I were two out of the estimated 
500,000 people in the Linux user base!  Now I am somewhere less than 
5e-6% of the user base...  Linux sure has come a long way in the last 8 
years.  Anyone in here start using linux before ~1994?  I started my 
linux experience using slackware in 1995.  Took forever to download all 
of the floppies in 1995 over a 9600 baud modem link (*cringe* - on AOL 
no less).  I think I will have to dig up an old copy of slackware and 
install it in vmware just to relive the old days.
