GNU Linux user since 1998. Started with Slackware and compiled the whole thing. Have used many different distros. First used the internet in 85 while assigned at Fort Bragg. We had a connection with the UC Davis which hosted a program that did load plans. Would jack around on some game sites and looked up a few recipes. No graphics just text. We also had a mobile computer in a van a few years later that had huge disks that ran the logistics program. Seemed to crash more than functioning.
