Simple question. Which distribution was your introduction?

For me, it was SLS Linux in '92-93, followed relatively naturally by Slackware, which was followed by Redhat.

RedHat in the mid-late 90s here too. It wasn't a great time for the linux desktop haha. I think I used afterstep or windowmaker back then. RPM hell was bad and hosed my system enough that Debian was like a savior with apt-get. Never really looked back from debian based systems since.
