I was going to bookmark this and add to my website until I saw

> Just like Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X, Linux is an operating system. An operating system is software that manages all of the hardware resources associated with your desktop or laptop. To put it
> simply – the operating system manages the communication between your software and your hardware. Without the operating system (often referred to as the “OS”), the software wouldn’t function.

Linux is NOT an OS.  It is a kernel.  Linux distros are OS.

Ok, one picky error.  Otherwise good article.
