Loss of my first Linux box


About a month ago my wife asked me to get rid of the extra POS Linux and BSD computers I was using for my renderfarm.  They quite a bit of an eyesore and so I agreed.  Unfortunately, in the the group of computers I got rid of was my first ever Linux computer.  It ran Fedora Core 1 and ran the server that ran this website until I upgraded computers and moved to FreeBSD.  So it will be missed – I don’t usually attach too much emotion to objects — especially computers.  I didn’t care too much when I got rid of my old Dell.  But since that computer was what allowed me to get into Linux and learn all about libre software — which I had no idea about before.  All I have left now from that era is the computer now known as luigi and functioning as my print and file server.
