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.

Pretty awesome experience; if you're new to Arch and Linux are both great ways combined to learn about it. It did break on me but nothing super problematic.
If you don't auto update or update weekly you'll have a pretty fine experience.
I picked it to enforce me to learn the way of Linux and or Arch specific since the aur and wiki are pretty nice.
Though do come from relative mild Linux experience and a great Windows knowledge from my job as sysadmin.
Do wanna see how I could incorporate more Linux into my environment for tasks.
