On August 25, 1991, Linus Torvalds posted his famous message to the
comp.os.minix USENET group:

"I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and
professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since
april, and is starting to get ready."

How long have you been using Linux? I started in the summer of 1998, with
RedHat 5.2.
