Exactly 20 years ago I bought a low-end laptop from a leading French online big-box store (RueDuCommerce.com). Instead of Windows the laptop came with a Linux CD. If only such discoveries were still possible today! The distro was Kanotix, a variant of Knoppix with better hardware support. I had been struggling with Suse and was bowled over by how much easier `apt` was. And that was how I came to use Debian and Ubuntu for two decades.
