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.

i ws forced to do it recently and noticed that they enforce usage of black terminal, like it is in the command prompt in windows.
it was a pain in the ass to keep switch colors just to touch that one powershell module and my first priority to replacing with with a python equivalent. they still think that the powershell module is being used, but it's no longer capable of working in this environment and they're going to have to spend $$$ to make it useable because i forsee LOT of difficulty and delays in bringing it up to spec.
