    as a child So you where under 12, when you learned how to use Linux? Its either that or you where actually a teenager not a child.

    But in general I do agree with controls set on children, locally by the parents that is - excluding teenagers.

      I first used linux with Ubuntu Hardy Heron, I was 8 or 9 years old…
      the ‘macs are cool’ to ‘modifying windows to look like mac’ to ‘try linux’ pipeline was real

      I did move back to windows with the windows 7 ‘black’ beta I found on kickasstorrents tho.

      Ah… 2008 was a much simpler time (on the internet)

        To be fair, having experience in OSes from childhood is certainly a life lesson to the upcoming years within teenhood and adulthood. I’m not undermining this attribute, as within a world of complexity, having any experience already puts you further than most.
