'Linux' with an uppercase 'L' is a registered trademark of Linus Thorvalds. Please note that the Trademarks *are* case-sensitive. Now switiching to RMS mode: Besides that there is no such thing as a Linux distribution because Linux is the raw kernel that is nothing without the accompanying tools. The correct statement is: 'Rubyx is a modern GNU/Linux distribution.' One should keep in mind that the success of Linux would have been impossible without the GNU software it comes with - many of the GNU tools are *much* more powerful than their Unix (i.e. BSD) counterparts.
