   #myfirsttime was with Mandrake 8 and I didn't go dual boot, I went all the way.

   It took two days to get the winmodem working.

      @frankiesaxx I think that was mine as well… but I dual-booted, and the effort of fighting the winmodem drove me off #Linux for any meaningful time until we got broadband. I worked on Win2k through high school, then moved to an Apple TiBook when I graduated.

      I still keep a laptop with #Fedora installed in the office for occasional Linux work, but #macOS keeps me happy.
