Linux is 1 day younger than Ukrainian independence. Nice :)

I remember installing Ubuntu 4.10 and then discussing it on a forum and someone was like "no mp3 support ? what stupid distro is that lol".

My first linux distro was Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper Drake). Was just trying to learn by myself how to use and understand linux. Fun times.

Happy Birthday!

Edit: I was probably one of the few that actually liked the orange and brown theme.
