Hi,
Interesting!!! I missed this while setting up my vacation home in Florida. So if everyone has seen this before me then so be it. Thought this was very interesting so I decided to share.

This month on The Queue, I answer a multi-part question received via email:
Why did you start LinuxQuestions.org? And can you tell us a little about the history of the site?
The answer
Computers, programming, and technology in general have always fascinated me. When I was in high school, I started working for a local ISP that used UNIX almost exclusively. The "UNIX way" just clicked and made a lot of sense to me. It wasn't long before I wanted to run something similar at home. The ISP used SCO, which is fairly ironic in retrospect, so home use really wasn't possible due to the high cost and licensing restrictions of the product. Searching for an alternative quickly lead me to Linux.

Hope this helps.
Have fun & enjoy!
