These are just some curious questions.
I've read that Linux is a "true multi-tasking operating system." (I
guess they meant "kernel"... or, if multi-tasking is handled by the
operating system, then they meant GNU). What does this mean exactly
when compared to windows? I've noticed that I love the way GNU/Linux
handles programs compared to windows.... but what exactly is the
underlying difference?
Also, how exactly does the linux kernel, the gnu operating system, and
the bash shell (and anything I'm missing) work together? I know that
the kernel is the foundation (well...), and then comes the operating
system (which does *what* compared to the kernel and bash?)....
Thanks a lot for your time.
