The first time I got serious about Linux would have been 2003, taking a few classes at the community college and joining a computer club w a focus on Linux.

Was my primary OS from 2003 to about 2013, when work drove me back to Windows. I basically haven't had a personal PC since then, switched to gaming on consoles.

Still use it for servers, and plan on switching my new home PC over in the coming weeks.
