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.

A lot of what Linux lacks is UI design, and at least 50+% of that is just because of what we got used to using other products.
Absolutely true. We mimicked bad design out there for compatibility, but then it became comfy and now cannot be changed.
Having said that, the ribbon must die. Let's not hold MSOffice (post-97) up as the ideal for anything at all, okay?
