To my detriment, I avoided having to learn anything in my 2007 highschool online Algebra 2 class by simply feeding the equations into Maxima. That was the year I first started using Linux - a Ubuntu 8.04 install CD on a Linux magazine saved my laptop from a corrupted Windows Vista install while away from home.
- narwally 6y agoI was doing my first Linux install around the same time. I ordered an install CD from both Ubuntu and Linux Mint; the Mint one came in first, so that's the OS I used for my first few years. I used the CD to make a bootable usb stick so that I could use the internet when my parents weren't home (they kept Windows password protected). I've never actually run Windows on a personal machine since I didn't have my own until college, and but that time I was a few years into my Linux journey.
