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.

Runs on an 10 year old Toshiba mini NB505 Netbook
Running on my Acer Aspire netbook now. Definitely slower than any modern device but when I do CLI stuff I can barely tell. Biggest gripe is the lack of systemd. Not that I like systemd, but some tools don't get on well without it.
