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.

No I believe you have to download more RAM actually. But what would I know I'm just a proctologist.
No, this is wrong. I saw this documentary, 'Johmny Neumonic' I think, and it specifically showed a computer scientist increasing his storage and RAM through software, but you need a special device to plug in to do it. I'm sure Best Buy sells it.
Yes! They also showed the amount of RAM was just a guideline and it's possible to "overfill" your RAM!
As a proctologist I recommend against this.
No, you are also wrong and need to rewatch that documentary. Sheer will and determination will allow you to double your RAM.
Also befriending a drugged up DARPA dolphin will be a massive boon too.
No, you are also wrong.
