first? Yeah, so, let's see, about 2005 is when I started looking at ways to customize Windows computers. And during that time, I was, I, you know, had learned enough about programming and that sort of thing that I could do DOS batch programming, but that didn't help me much in personalizing the Windows computer to make it work the way I wanted it to work. But during the research of some of the DOS batch programming that I was doing, I learned about a program called Cygwin, C-Y-G-W-I-N, if I remember correctly. And that was a way to put a Unix-like operating system within Windows, and I kind of latched on to that, and that led me to Linux. And that's, that was the first time I had heard about Linux through Cygwin, kind of sideways, finding out about Cygwin and then finding about Unix and finding out about Linux. Right. So, what is intriguing you to try Linux? Is it that trying to find the customization ability? Yeah, exactly. I want, I was, I always knew that computers could do more (15/83)
