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.

User Friendly
Linux
is a delight to use because of the endless customizability afforded
by Open Source.
Linux
gives you the freedom to change it to do what you want without
having to buy new software.
Linux
always seems up to date. Many new programs selling for hundreds
or thousands of dollars on Windows, NT and Macs
have been standard and free on Linux for years.
Want
a new program drawing? No problem. Just go on the web and
download one of several powerful, open source, free programs.
The
simplicity and consistency of customizing Linux makes for
a very low learning curve.
