From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have several 4 and 8 TB disks filled up with various stuff just waiting to be cleaned up. Why do you think I'm preaching about storage space management?
My dual 10's are starting to fill up because I don't move stuff off-site as I should. And then reclaiming space through disk analyser and freeing up reserved space is a life saver.
