Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Respect .. i believe you. But backing up and restoring the system configuration is done quickly -usually faster than an upgrade. And you have a clean system
Age of Slackers? ... Ah .... now I see its a survey ...I thought it was Age like in the Age of Steam or the Age of Discovery .... sorry ... I don't discuss my age ... I'm too old.
As I see this thread combines a poll concerning our age with some information concerning our experience.
I described my computer experience six years ago in this post. Nothing changed since then except for my experience which is much bigger now.
You may be also interested in my old thread entitled This is my way to Slackware... It starts with extensive poll concerning our Slackware Linux and FLOSS experience.

Not, if you use current. Sometimes I have new version before it was released (When last RC become full version)
I also think that current takes a lot of time.
But I have to be careful, my first wife left me 8 years ago because i spend too much time on my computer
I'd never had Linux on my computer until someone on IRC recommended that I try Slackware 10.2. This was back in 2005 when 10.2 had just come out. I was 15 and I spent days downloading and burning all six CDs, unaware that I only needed like two or three for a full install (my bandwidth was a mere 32kbps).
