When did you first start using Linux and why?

A source based distro and a very helpful team.

KDE or GNOME?

I use fluxbox which is a small wm that incite me to have a better knowledge of the system. If I was using big nice wm, I wouldn't try to know what's behind. I just use some gtk+(2) applications, but no gnome or kde programs.

What kind of car do you drive? Or what is your dream car?

A good old (16 years) honda civic that I get for $300, and which suck about 16 liters/60 miles.
No dream car, since it can transport me from a point A to B without breaking down.
