This document provides a brief history of Linux in 3 paragraphs. It discusses how Linux originated from MINIX and was developed by Linus Torvalds as a hobby. It then grew rapidly due to its combination with the GNU operating system and use of the GPL license. Finally, it outlines how Linux now powers a wide variety of devices from servers to smartphones and has been widely adopted by companies like IBM.
