Child, when I started, I still typed WIN <ENTER> only about half the time I turned on the family 486, BeOS was a viable alternative, and Slackware took you days to get a system set up. And I’m not nearly as old as the great old ones roaming around this very forum.
I remember getting the pressed CDs in the mail for free. It was my first installed distribution but I remember messing around with a Slax Live CD before.
Damn, now I feel old. The first linux distro I installed (and was able to run on my hardware) was their second release, 05.04.

You want to feel older? That release is older than me, and I’m a full grown adult.
I also started with Hoary Hedgehog!
