What's GNU/Linux ?
GNU/Linux is a UNIX like operative system, thought to be a valid alternative to Microsoft Windows. Both Linux kernel, i.e. the centre controlling the whole computer working, and the software realized by GNU, are released under GPL licence (General Public Licence) or LGPL licence (Library GPL).
These licences assure the safeguard of the copyright and even the possibility to modify the source code.

- carry out the programme for any purpose;
