   	Well I learned about OSes when I got that CPM+ option for my C=128.   
   	I learned a lot more about OSes with Amiga OSes 1.2, 1.3. 2.1, 3.1. and   
   3.9.  On the Amiga I learned as well about hard disk partitions and SCSI   
   terminations as well as File Utilities and especially using text   
   processors to prepare ASCII for word processors   
   to make pretty.   
   	On Mandriva learned about KDE and eventually Gnome from 2006-2013.   
   	On Kubuntu I learned a bit about UEFI/EFI and GPT.   
   	On Mageia I learned a bit more.   
   	Using Fedora I learned how much the UEFI could be ignored   
   and how quickly a DVD could take over the boot process.   
   	   
   	I like to try different Live distributions.  I don't much   
   care to mess about with my fixed disk when I have something running   
   so that I can do my primary tasks and jobs.   
      
   	Time to go to my 1st appointment today.
