In Sweden there were computer magazines that came with a CD-ROM that had at least one new Linux distro on it with every issue. I had so much fun trying them all out on my computer and noting down what I liked the best with each of them.
Sometimes when I was home alone for an extended period of time, I used to install a distro on the shared family computer as well, to use as a router and have the feeling of running a real server (so far I had only experienced UNIX/Linux servers via restricted shells on public services over dialup, but never as root…).
Before the family returned home I would reinstall Windows 95 and they would be none the wiser. At least I think so…
