I was a normalfag until I discovered GNU/Linux in 2008. What the fuck is that? I need a quick rundown.

You're still a normalfag, dumb frogposter

How can you be old enough to have been using Linux for almost a decade and not know what Gateway is? I bet you don't know about eMachines either.

I wonder what the Dell guy is up to these days

Didn't he go to jail for a while for something? I remember people saying "Dude, you're gettin' a cell" for a while, mocking the whole ad campaign.

I had one for college
Had the original 1GHz Athlon in it
Shit was so cash but they used shitty hdds

He got busted with a decent amount of weed but I can't remember if he actually did time or if it was just pro-b

When I was a kid, Gateway computers were so awesome and looked amazing, but I was never able to get one.
