Huh.. now that you say that, I realise I'm the same.
I cut my teeth programming on a Sinclair ZX-81 and worked up to Spectrums, played with the Apple II my school had, programmed in BBC basic, Loglan and Fortran. I've worked on C64, Jupiters and a Dragon32. My first 'windows' like experience was an Archimedes 440, my first actual windows was 95, and i've worked (reluctantly sometimes) with every iteration since... I've worked on a DEC-10 and old VAX machines.
and I think I got started with linux with Ubuntu 6.0, and I've messed around with a dozen or so distos... including some strange ones. You ever hear of Yggdrasil or Bodhi?
No wonder I can intuit U.I's... There's only so many ways you can do stuff!
