>What got you started in Linux?

I just read it in PC world that there is another OS in town. I started in RH5. Kaya lang putul-putol ang pag discover ko sa product.

Out of curiousity.

>Who influenced you into using Linux, if any?

Nobody.

>Where did you first learn about Linux?

In the office. There was an extra machine nobody wanted to use (celeron). Since I read that it can run on a 486, so I installed it there.

>How did you get your copy of Linux?

Bought a cd from my friend.

>When did you first hear about Linux?

>When did you actually use Linux for the first time?

2 years ago.

>When did you install Linux on your own 'puter?

a year ago. I was having problems with the drivers so I was to forced to delay my plan until I can afford a linux compatible hardware.

>Why did you decide to try Linux out?

out of curiousity.

>Why do you still use Linux? or Why do you no longer use Linux?

It gives me the flexibility that windows won't give me. And I don't need to reboot!

>What is your favorite thing about Linux?

It's free and gives me satisfaction when I learn a new thing about computers.

>Quite a number of questions here, but the last three are perhaps the ones

>that will reveal the most interesting answers.
>
>If your answer is quite lengthy, maybe you would prefer to send me your
>answers in private email. I will probably come out with an article which I
>will post to the list summarizing my findings.
>
>Have a nice free day!
