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've ready that is a nice and very advanced OS. I run a dell laptop with Intel processor, so I was thinking of checking it out.I did a live disc and it felt like every other version of gnome.... Though there are probably many¹ features im not aware of. So what and who is this distro for. Me running Intel drivers, processor, CPU, would it me to make the swap?
