Linux....uh, what?

If you're like me and still a bit hazy on the whole Linux thing then this article is for you. You'll get some background on the fundamenal differences between things like Gnu, BSD, UNIX, Darwin, and something called Minix (totally new to me)...as well as some of the popular Linux distro's.

Hopefully over time I'll be posting more of my experiences with Linux, but in order to do that I need to start playing with it a bit more.

Step One: build a firewall, maybe with IPCop. Step Two: build a spamfilter. Step Three: become a Linux convert like I did with Mac OSX.....we'll see.
