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.

Toyed a bit with Sketchup before Google got their claws on it. Abandoned it after it happened.

I think it became a browser based solution at some point?

Not in the mood to pay for a solution that a FOSS program may cover as well, considering it won't be used for professional purposes.
