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.

How about govt computers? Do they have Linux on them or what? 10% is pretty big 👌
Sadly, they still run windows... Wish that will change in the future...
Edit: mostly cracked versions of windows : ) (and the older the sector, the older the windows version (eg. xp))
I think they are present in some school computer labs in a server and full/thin client combination.
