I started with Unix, got to like it's case sensitivity, then moved to DOS and OS/2 as well. On the latter two, I missed the case sensitivity, which I used under Unix to impose some order to my files. Granted, the case sensitivity under Unix can sometimes get in the way, and often causes mistakes and the need to retype. I still like it, though.
