I remember when I first bought this package it was way back after I went to the COMDEX computer convention. I just heard about the hype of Linux so I bought a retail box of it at the computer store. I had like a 486 or a 586 or something like that and I had no idea how it worked or how. I just installed it and looked at a installation of nothing as I thought of it. Now I have plenty of experience in Linux computing that I remember being suggested to use openSUSE but I checked out regular SUSE and I may as well check it out like… 25 years later… maybe I know how to use it now instead of installing it on a MSDOS platform.
