Still not sure.              I use only Linux, other than a work laptop that I'm required to        run Win10 on. A little past the 20 year point too. First ever        install was Slackware (or maybe SLS, can't remember) from        floppies... Eventually Redhat when it was still free, then        Mandrake for a while. Back to Slackware around 2002 or so, and        been there ever since. I do play around with other distros and am        familiar with most of them, but Slackware remains my primary (on a        Lenovo laptop). I also have a few RPi's doing various things,        mostly running stock Raspbian. The BBS runs on a seperate small        form factor Dell, also running Slackware.                            ...
