What is Linux?

A brief motion graphic overview of the GNU/Linux operating system for your desktop, workstation, laptop and more (a.k.a. "Linux").

This is not intended to be an exhaustive description of Linux, but I made a more in-depth video which describes Linux in more detail -- see it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8ik8p....
