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.

MX
It's a nice one for low end machines
Heh. I think of MX as the bloated heavy big brother of AntiX.
It kinda is, but it's usually easier for people new to linux
Reinstalled my OS (after losing my prior OS from lightning & powercut)... and it's MX Linux! Hehe. ... Hijacked with bedrock linux in seconds after first booting into it. Added a fetch of gentoo and void, and imported an old artix from my other computer (since artix fetch still currently broken).
Bleh... XFCE. I gotta get back into a tiling window manager soon. ;D Lagging on doing that, since I'm doing stuff (like playing long video playlists, keeping an eye on IRC, and so on).
With only a little configuration (like turning off the dyslexia worsening transparency on terminal background), MX Linux does not hurt.
