From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

mmmh.. I'm from a poor south american country and my hard disk broke like three years ago and I've been running Debian in a SD card since then. I remember trying Manjaro but it didn't let me install the system on the SD. Thanks to Linux I'm currently able to work from home. I would had to ask my boss a computer if not and it would be a Windows machine
