The first version of Linux I ever got my hands on was Yggdrasil Linux. I 
bought it at the UofT bookstore in the fall of 1994. It was the first and 
last time I have been to that bookstore. I'm not avoiding the place. I just 
haven't found myself in the area again.

With so many distros available for download on line I wouldn't expect (m)any 
stores to carry Linux CDs/DVDs for sale. Most are out-of-date in six months 
time when the next release is made available.
