Slackware turns 30 today

That was my first distro... in 1993! Because I bought a book with a CD in the back that had the whole thing instead of having to download a bunch of floppies!
A system with a CD drive in 1993 was a luxury. I remember I had to use floppies in 1994.
I had a single speed CD rom, but it was hooked up under a weird SCSI arrangement that Slackware wouldn't recognize.
So I swapped it out for a 2X IDE drive with a 3CD caddy! Good times!
