What is Linux ?
Linux is a free Unix-type operating system originally
created by Linus Torvalds with the assistance of
developers around the world. Linux is an independent
POSIX implementation and includes true multitasking,
virtual memory, shared libraries, demand loading, proper
memory management, TCP/IP networking, and other
features consistent with Unix-type systems. Developed
under the GNU General Public License, the source code
for Linux is freely available to everyone.
