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.

3.3 was my first love. Old enough to make me old, without being old enough to be cool.
Only thing I could find that’d easily let you install into 3meg of ram. It said you needed 4, but would let you use a second floppy drive instead of loading the first disk into ram.
