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.

seems god but i wonder how did linux become popular than osx on greece?
No money for Windows :P
Probably bc Macs cost twenty times the average annual salary there
Twenty time ? 20x? I think Indonesian has already bad enough about 7-10 times of annual salary to buy Mac.. yet greece condition seems worst...
I was being extremely facetious
Mac is just extremely pricey and very underwhelming for an everyday person. UwU
