Thanks @freitasm. I must've played in on the Amiga 500. Must dig out old Amiga 500 and disks now to see if I still have it hahaha

From my initials  -  DB   (or rather it should be  dB )

My initials gave me my first username on the Cambridge University 370/165.

My director of studies was openly envious of people with 4 initials. He was RJS1.

What more could I ask?

I bought a book about Linux ("Linux Installation and Getting Started "), by Matt Welsh, at Quay Computers on Lambton Quay. About 1993. It included a CD with Linux kernel v0.99. I installed it on my 386DX-40 (with 16MB of RAM) and Trident i9000 SVGA card....the only one at that time with good Linux support for SVGA. 

It was a revelation. It took me about 4 hours to recompile the kernel to get the SVGA drivers built into it. This was awesome. 

I became "Linuxluver". 

Now, with Android on most of my personal devices......I have linux everywhere. Even my SONY TV.
