I quite agree. I started with some SVR3 UNIX but wound up using
Linux because it was free and worked with the hardware I had at
the time. It's a constant source of pleasure to work with the old 
UNIX hands around my shop and learn what my roots are. I even
have some books around here with Jerry Peek's name on them... :-)
