From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Sorry but it's a blatant gen x spreadsheet program!
The last release was in 2002. It's not limited to Gen X. As an older millennial, I leaned Lotus 1-2-3 and Lotus Word Pro before I was introduced to Microsoft's Suite.
WordPerfect or gtfo
I miss Wordperfect, although I don't miss the templates everyone had on their keyboards.
I mostly wish Word had "show codes."
Opera Soft’s games ftw
As a younger Gen-Xer, we were still using Lotus Notes for logging calls when I worked at Dell Tech support in 98-99. It sucked.
Hahahahaha.
I was still using Notes in 2013. Most functions had moved on, but for the government department that I was working for at the time it was essential for IM, group mailboxes, and... a specific type of diplomatic communication.
Right but we don't age things from it's last release do we!
First released in 83 when I was 9 and I played with my ZX81.
Huh. I played with my penis. And an Atari 1040ST (a few years later).
Well then, Thanks for sharing! I moved on from a ZX81 to a BBC Master (128k+dbl sided 40/80T dual disk drive) and then to a Falcon 030 in late '92. Games sounded sooo much better on the Falcon 030
That hardware is so fascinating (in hindsight): I love that it had a hardware jpeg decoder. Fun times.
For sure man, mine came with a copy of cubase which blew my mind then and now lol
I'm an Xennial and my grandmother taught me how to use Lotus when I was in junior high lol
