It also supports multiple users (various
users can work on the same team when

different applications at the same time without
interference between them) and multiple processors.
It is built on a network and service processes

Linux Philosophy
Linux is a reliable, solid, and powerful system.
It can even be run with very few
resources in very low performance teams.
It is compatible with Internet standards,
TCP/IP protocols, used on the Internet. Linux
it is a free tool to create networks
locales, connect to the Internet and configure
servers.

Distributions
A Linux distribution consists of a kernel plus
a number of software tools for
file operation, user management, and management
of software packages. Each one of those
tools provide a small part of the
complete system. Each tool is for the
regular a separate project, with its own
developers working to perfect the piece
of the system.
