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.

Oh yeah, definitely. And also avoid the 2010-2011 models with dedicated graphics. 2012 13" non-retina and L2013-2015 models are all ok. But still wouldn't recommend them anymore since those old Intel CPUs just aren't all that great and even the original M1 Air is superb, beats the crap out of even the last i9 16" MBP, at a good price point.
