Exclamation GNU's Not Unix!


This is an unofficial archive of GNU information. The FSF now has the "official" GNU web pages set up.

It is mainly a collection of information that I have collected over the years Much of it is either "historical" information or information that FSF does not keep in the software archives.

I also try to maintain links to all the GNU resources I know of around the web. This page pretty much represents all the information I have relating to GNU, so please investigate the various links I have here before sending me e-mail (unless you like the words "I don't know").

Read Complete Info @ SOURCE

Post Re: GNU's Not Unix!

I'd like to add this to ur article.`coz it helps.
Linux is NOT Windows
If you've been pointed at this page, then the chances are you're a relatively new Linux user who's having some problems making the switch from Windows to Linux. This causes many problems for many people, hence this article was written. Many individual issues arise from this single problem, so the page is broken down into multiple problem areas.
Problem #1: Linux isn't exactly the same as Windows.

Problem #2: Linux is too different from Windows
Problem #3: Culture shock

Problem #5: The myth of "user-friendly"
Subproblem #5a: Familiar is friendly

Subproblem #5b: Inefficient is friendly
Problem #6: Imitation vs. Convergence

Problem #7: That FOSS thing.
