August 25, 1991, it was released to the world as a "hobby" ...

Slide deck by e-Week showing the evolution of the Linux kernel from
1991 (10K lines of code) to 2016 (22M lines of code)

Today, it is everywhere, from the smallest device to the biggest
mainframe and beyond the boundaries of our planet.

Linus Torvalds and *all* the contributors to Linux - what a legacy you
have created and what a wonderful gift you have given to human kind!

Hats off to all.

PS - the Linux kernel is older than many in this forum :) Your legacy
-- keep the torch burning and take it to higher heights; become
contributors to a FOSS project.
