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.

I found a Windows XP theme for Cinnamon. Not because I need it to look like Windows, but because nostalgia can be fun and XP was iconic. The bit I really like is the actual Windows XP default system sounds I also got my paws on, though. That was back when software developers cared about good soundscapes!
Though I have to admit, the classic grey boxy look basically every computer GUI had in the 90s is also something I really like. So maybe I'm just way more stuck in the old days of tech than my chronological age might suggest is possible.
