    X Windows was my day 1 challenge. I loved having to change the monitor sync and hearing your monitor go “SNAP” when you start it up, then staring at basically a horizontal line. That, and the line in the Usenet posting on how to set up X Windows say “You can physically destroy your monitor here.”

      Oh, yeah, I forgot about that! Yeah, Linux at that time really was something else. We’ve come such a long way, it’s amazing.
