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.

😂 fun! I'd add a "Windows 13" logo when the Windows/Start button is pressed.

Do you have a source for that wallpaper?

I think it’s one of windows vista’s wallpapers, the setup background I think

Totally get it! Windows 7 looked/looks amazing! Personally I have an XP themed setup on my Ubuntu install. There's just something great about old UI design.
