Linux is a free, open source operating system released on September 17, 1991, by Linus Torvalds. It is modeled after UNIX, an old and powerful operating system that predates anything Microsoft stole or hacked together by decades. Although Linux is not the "most secure", "most stable", nor absolute "best all-purpose" Operating System available, it is better than Microsoft Windows in almost every category. For many specific jobs Linux is one of the best choices, and has its specific strengths specifically in the Internet web and application server arena.
Linux is the best-known and most-used open source operating system. From smartphones to cars, supercomputers and home appliances, home desktops to enterprise servers, the Linux operating system is everywhere. Embedded system developers overwhelmingly choose Linux as a platform. Furthermore, as an ordinary, everyday user and casual gamer on a home desktop computer you will find Linux to be well suited for the task. Today's distributions include some that are easier to use than Microsoft Windows 10 and offer something Microsoft refuses to offer, that being your privacy.
The documents in our Linux Notes Section will provide you with everything from an introduction to Linux and related concepts to in-depth configuration, development, and deployment. Microsoft Windows bloatware and expensive licensing may eventually become a thing of the past. At present subscription based pay-to-use software has become all the rage with the low skill I.T. crowd. As you sit at home using your Microsoft Windows desktop you can rest assured you are being watched, monitored, and tracked if not by hackers due to Window's poor security then positively by Microsoft Itself, the latter being a condition that is intolerable. That's why top I.T. engineers and industry professionals are migrating to alternatives like Linux and Macintosh. Don't be left behind!
