I remember that doing ./config failed, and I honestly had no clue in the beginning. So, while some friends of mine suggested that I abandon Linux and use Windows "because it works, and you don't have to waste your time" I decided to `waste` my time.
So I googled, asked around, watched the masters, and most importantly, learned. I tried again, failed again, and faster, but not on the same pitfall. Always on something new. And in the process I increased my knowledge of the system, of the programming languages used, I learned how to patch the software, clever and not-so-clever tricks.
The best part? I'm still failing, and I'm still learning.
I'm not into OS-wars - I just loved what I did, still do, and I'd do it again a million time :)
