Linus Torvalds Birthday Thursday December 28, 2006 All Day (This event repeats every year.) Notes: Happy birthday to Linux Torvalds, creator of Linux! Below is a little about him. In 1991 Linus Torvalds was a college student at the University of Helsinki. Based on a Unix system, he wrote the kernel -- original code -- for a new system for his x86 PC that was later dubbed Linux (pronounced linn-ucks). Torvalds revealed the original source code for free -- making him a folk hero among programmers -- and users around the world continue to tweak it. Linux is considered the leader in the practice of allowing users to re-program their own operating systems. Thanks to him, we all have Linux All Rights Reserved Copyright © 2006 Yahoo!
