The differences between Linux and other Unix (based) operating systems is barely noticable to the average user. I myself use freebsd which is a unix platform and gentoo which is is a linux distro.
The commands might be located in slightly different places or may have different sets of arguments but the functionallity is thesame. With the GNU tools available for most platforms nowdays even these differences vanish. Most of the differences are located in the kernel design and the systems administration tools but overall they perform the same and both are very stable smile.gif

Both are into my favorite list I like Freebsd and Gentoo the most of all

Beside those I also used, debian, slackware, mandrake, suse, arch, knoppix and openbsd befor I found the one i liked best smile.gif

Linux Is Not UniX

thats where the name comes from. Unix is older, much older than Linux so you can't really say Linux is more stable. FreeBSD is probably one of the most stable systems out there and a favorite of corporate servers.

But I could never get used to the small differences between the two and always ended up using Linux.

edit: ah you mention gentoo pbrugge, now that is an impressive distro!

well Linux or Unix doesn't matter to me, I'd use either one if i would have to choose from these TWO. personally i Like windows 2003 server, good thing in windows server is that u can run asp and jsp. which I believe u can't use on Linux. RIte?? rolleyes.gif

Actually, according to Rebel Code, Linux was a mishap made
from Linus Torvald's name. Alperuzi, I think you're talking about GNU
-originally stood for GNU's Not Unix.

Unix is probably more stable but Linux has a lot more device drivers
and the like. The command line is almost identical. But personally
I like Linux better, Gentoo all the way. cool.gif
