Exercise 4

Linux was written by Linus Torvalds, born December 28th 1969 Helsinki. August 25 in 1991 Linus Torvalds release first clone operating system, Minix. Minix was early version of Linux. One of the more interesting facts about Linux is that development simultaneously occurs around the world. People from all over the world contributed to Linux. Linux is being developed under the GNU General Public License (GPL), and thus is freely redistributable in source code. Linux therefore was and remains a free program. Anyone can use it without charge, on condition that any improvements they make are also uncopyrighted and freely available. Linux is compact and it runs faster than windows. It is also more stable.

***************** Copy/paste, copy/paste, copy/paste... Rami, it's better to write "pääd Inglis" than to copy... I really hope you didn't try to copy your whole essay. It will earn you 0 points if you do.


So, I write to the Linux, something about Linux developer Linus Torvalds, system requirements, Linux history and of course, where you can get Linux. So, everyone who read this essay, should have small idea, what is Linux and where it come from!? Rami Fält

***I'll give you 2,5 points for this last part, though.
