Nothing against those 2 distros, but in the 90s, in reality, there

Oh boy, Yggdrasil!  That brings me back, my first Linux installation
from around 20 floppy on a Compaq with a massive (Massive!  I say)

recalls using Redhat in late nineties
 
And that was my second... I actually bought the box.
 
Only two versions I knew back in the day were Debian and Red Hat, a
friend had SUSE.
 
When the time came I tried out everything and Debian worked OK, but
was lacking in desktop frills, so I tried Ubuntu, but for whatever
reason the installation failed, so I tried mint Mate.
 
And have never seen any reason to try anything else.

Began with SLS [1], installed Slackware when it first appeared as an
"improved" SLS, still using Slackware (now V15) today.
