This news makes me feel so old 
I just looked that up some days ago: my first distro was SuSE 6.1, I think… with KDE 1.1… I switched back to Windows fast (me young then, needed games!), but it was the start of a long journey on and off Linux for years. Also, my dad started selling PCs with SuSE then… good old yast… good old KDE.
(Important: this was written on a modern Plasma desktop on my EndeavourOS, in these modern times installed via the Internet, not 5 CD-ROM discs!)
