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'm jumping industries here, but Nintendo could not get that out of their system for a while. A game titled "New Super Mario Bros." came out in it's first first iteration in 2006. It did quite well, so they kept making sequels, the most recent titled "New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe". They also put out a couple game consoles with "New" at the beginning, if memory serves.
