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.

I don't know about you. But when I get home my work laptop stays in my backpack, and I don't think about it. I need a laptop with enough battery life that I can get into work the next day and get through a 4 hour meeting without worrying if it's going to die regardless of what I was doing the previous day.
It always stays in your backpack at home, and your meeting rooms at work don't have electricity?
It’s not always accessible. Not all tables have built in outlets in spots that’d reach where I need to be.
Talk to the person in charge of the meeting room. Every meeting room should have good ventilation, electricity and water. It's like human rights kind of stuff. :D
this is a bizarre response, so what do u do the day after that when you forget to recharge?
Meetings. Have you never had a day where you’re constantly bouncing between meetings, or helping others?
