I have no idea what my Registered Linux number is. Have been running
linux since 94/95 and also love it.
I have been running the 2.4.x kernels since 2.4.2, currently have
2.4.6 under test. No problems at all on any of the 2.4.x series.
I have 2 other boxes running 2.4.5 but will upgrade then both in a
few days.
Don't know the oldest Linux user but I will be 63 in November. Also
don't know if I would classify myself as living. :-) I feel very bad
that I had to check out my new Plextor CD/RW drive today, on WinBloze.
I swore I would never use that junk again. Please forgive me for my
lapse in sanity.
