Linux - a Unix-like operating system named for its author, Linus Torvalds. Linux was designed to provide personal computer users a free or very low-cost operating system comparable to traditional and usually more expensive UNIX systems. Although copyrights are held by various creators of Linux's components, Linux is distributed using the Free Software Foundation's copyleft stipulations that mean any copy is in turn freely available to others. Unlike Windows and other proprietary systems, Linux is publicly open and extendible by contributors. It is considered fast and reliable as both a Web server and a workstation and runs on many different kinds of hardware, including the Alpha, Amiga, Atari, IBM, Intel, PowerPC/Macintosh, SGI, and Sun Sparc platforms. Some vendors do sell collections, or distributions, of the Linux kernel, plus Linux drivers, applications, and utilities for a price. Linux is sometimes suggested as a possible publicly-developed alternative to the desktop predominance of Microsoft Windows. Although Linux is popular among users already familiar with UNIX, it remains far behind Windows in numbers of users.
NetWare, made by Novell, is the most widely-installed network server operating system . Initially very successful in installing its products in large and small office local area networks (LANs), Novell has redesigned (or at least refeatured) NetWare to work successfully as part of larger and heterogeneous networks, including the Internet. NetWare's primary competitor is the Microsoft Windows NT operating system.
