Dorky, but when I'm working in an isolated repo (and not the project repo) and have to run leave the office fast (say, a fire drill), it's nice to have five keys to hit before locking and abandoning my laptop.

My first attempt at running Linux was on a 386 that I'd cobbled together before starting college. I was a comp.sci major, and the requirements for the course were a computer with Ethernet and a TCP/IP stack. The Ethernet card was easy to get but I didn't have the horsepower to run Windows (plus, I didn't have any warez hookups so pirating it wasn't going to happen). A BBS I used to hang out on had zipped disk images of this thing called Slackware Linux, and from chatting with the sysop I found out that it seemed to have everything I needed (including a C++ compiler) to start college. The rest, as they say, is history.
