kernel-trap a minor correction. You probably missed that Linux is not an OS but a kernel. while the source is under GPL the name Linux is copyright of Linus Torvalds. u may say that linux variants/distributions are unix like..(and that in philosophy and cosmetic appearance only as far as the shell is concerned) :)

u r always welcome sir. actually by pointing out these little mistakes made by ppl like us, we help the newbies reading these posts understand these minor differences. I have no doubt in mind that u know the difference but as i said helping a newbie to grasp the concepts is the primary purpose.
