[Ubuntu-PT 4550] === Happy Birthday Linux ===

=== Happy Birthday Linux ===

On August 25, 1991, an unknown student in Helsinki, Finland, posted a question to the comp.os.minix newsgroup.  In 3 days, there were 7 replies, including some of his own further explaining what he had done and what he wanted to do.  Now, 17 years later, there are numerous distributions (including Ubuntu) that operate on the kernel that Linus Torvalds first conceived as a personal project.  Happy Birthday, Linux, and thank you Linus for your inspiration and dedication to good computing.
