[SOC] I can't believe I finally did it...

I've been playing around with DOS only the last week or so, and figured
since I wasn't using Windows very much anymore I may as well look into 
Linux (something I've been meaning to do for a while).

I tried a couple different distributions, but couldn't get any of them
to work.  Then a couple hours ago I downloaded and made boot floppies
for Grey Cat Linux 1.9.  It was real easy to set up.

And at 3:58 am cst, on March 15, 2002, Mr. Rob made his first connection
to the internet with a Linux OS and at 3:59 I veiwed my first webpage
with a lynx-ish text browser. :^)

Haven't figured out how to configure the e-mail yet.  Will save that for
when I'm not so sleep-deprived :^)

And now that it's official, I can finally say I'm a Linux user that
likes Windows :^)))
