Wow! My first hands on a Linux distribution! It was like version pl .18 or something like that. Not even v1 yet. I ran an internet access bbs off of it using shell and slip (for client) with 5 dialins. Backend was either DSL or 28.8k modem. Boy did that thing get laggy sometimes. People loved it though. I charged $20 for 3 months. Never made any money. I just did it for the fun. What a great distribution. Congrats Slackware!
I'm going to say that picture was taken in China? But yes. That is hell. Not too far off from where I am living.
