I started learning Linux back in '98 after experimenting with a freely
shipped x86 version of solaris, which came about from some new Solaris boxes
at work, and I wanted to gain extra experience and confidence. Still using
Windows at work though along with AIX now, but the linux skills etc are
invaluble.

I put together a mp3 jukebox for the home (Cajun). Around 2002/3 I stumbled
on freevo and myth (0.6 back then). I started with q bttv tuner and a 40GB
disk, and soon outgrew it!
