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.

the whole OS, everything from kernel to installation to philosophy
I printed out a Gentoo manual in 2004 and compiled from scratch to a working os with x. I ruined it a week later and went back to Windows and learned nothing that stuck with me. Ive been messing around with free slackware cd's since the late 90's, whole smart home is running debian and ive been gaming on linux close to 10 years now, the synenergy with the deck is fantastic.
I'm gonna try and start the course in the top comment :)
