It wasn’t just programming either. It was anything with computing. I remember when you could walk into a book store and find a wall of books on Linux, so many of which came with “the Publisher’s Edition” of a Linux distro. That’s how I learned (and obtained!) Linux for the first time. I was hooked. Where else was a kid going to get a full Linux suite (with just a dial up connection) and a sound basic education for it, in 2003? I never quite took that for granted, but I still miss being able to walk into a bookstore and walk out with a book with software included. There was something really special about that. |
