What’s Linux?
Linux is a flavour of UNIX, an operating system (underlying software that provides an interface between a computer’s hardware and its applications) developed at Bell Laboratories as a private research project by a small group of people starting in 1969. Linux was originally developed in 1991 by Linus Torvalds, then a student at the University of Helsinki, Finland. Linux is now being developed with the help of many UNIX programmers across the Internet under the GNU General Public License and its source code is freely available to everyone.
