    What year did you install Linux for the 1st time?

    Self explanatory... I don't care whether you actually succeeded or not in the installation

    If it was a particularly exciting/memorable moment, tell us!

    For me, it was Mandrake Linux 8.2 in November 2002, and yeah, it was all new and exciting. It was pre-firefox and pre-openoffice times, so I remember having KDE 2.2.2 with KOffice and Mozilla. It took a few years to become 100% linux guy, but it happened...
