Linux Distributions

Linux is a free Unix-type operating system originally created by Linus Torvalds with the assistance of developers around the world. Developed under the GNU General Public License , the source code for Linux is freely available to everyone.

There are several Linux Distributions (collections of Linux/GNU-related software) available on the net.

This page gives information about these various Linux Distributions.

A good starting point for news, comparisons and more detailed information about distributions is distrowatch.com.

You can download CD images (aka ISOs) of distributions from linuxiso.org.
