Linux
(often pronounced LIH-nuhks with a short "i") is a
Unix-like operating system that was designed to provide
personal computer users a free or very low-cost
operating system comparable to traditional and usually
more expensive Unix systems. Linux has a reputation as
a very efficient and fast-performing system. Linux's
kernel (the central part of the operating system) was
developed by Linus Torvalds at the University of Helsinki
in Finland. To complete the operating system, Torvalds
and other team members made use of system
components developed by members of the Free Software
Foundation for the GNU Project.
