9) Linus Torvalds of Linux
Operating System Linus Torvalds originally used the Minix OS on his system which
he replaced by his OS.
Hence the working name was Linux (Linus' Minix).
He thought the name to be too egotistical and planned to name it Freax (free +
freak + x).
His friend Ari Lemmk encouraged Linus to upload it to a network so it could be
easily downloaded.
Ari gave Linus a directory called linux on his FTP server, as he did not like
the name Freax.
Linus like that directory name and he kept the name of his new OS to LINUX.....
