Linux cumple 18 años

El 25 de agosto de 1991 Linus Torvalds enviaba este mensaje:

Hello everybody out there using minix -

I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be
big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones.
This has been brewing since april, and is starting to
get ready. I'd like any feedback on things people
like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat
(same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical
reasons) among other things).

Hay un artículo resumen de la historia de Linux bastante interesante escrito por Alvy de Microsiervos
