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.

Ah yes... it is easy as long as you do something difficult first.
Reminds me of that comment on Dropbox where some guy said it's going to fail because he can easily build something similar with an ftp server.
Dropbox is even making money....(I am shocked as it sends tech firms rarely do.)
How is Dropbox making money and how is it possible it is still around? It can be easily replaced by an ftp server.
Oh wait, they sell data for money, my fault.
Nothing started easy, someone has to figure out the hard part for everyone else to benefit.
