Year of Linux on the consumer PC. Linux has been dominating the server space for... 40+ years now.
That’s interesting, I remember reading a post to comp.os.minix about 32 years ago about a Finnish student who made his own OS. It was just a kernel that barely worked. Wish I’d known it was already dominant in the server space for over 8 years, could have gotten a head start!
I hope that student's project turned out ok, even if it's not big and professional like GNU. Did he ever add support for non-AT hard disks?
I'm not quibbling with nerds over the timeline, I was just echoing the original poster's words.
So Linux has been dominating the server space since before it existed? Cool!
