jff

The Linux newsgroup kept creeping up the chart.At one point it made the top forty and I was happy. That was pretty cool. I seem to remember having written a fairly gloating article to comp.os.linux in which I basically listed the various os(operating system) newsgroups, including Minix, and said, "Hey look at this,we're more popular than Windows." Remember that, back then, people who liked Windows were not on Internet. We made it to the top give sometime in 1993. I went to bed that night brimming with self-satisfaction,excited by the fact that Linux had become almost as popular as sex.

Just completed the jff (just for fun).

Had nothing to take from it and it was wonderful.
