Hi Alexander,
How does this sound?
Both OpenIndiana and BSD are true unix operating systems, whose roots
trace back to the original AT&T Unix. Linux in contrast, was created
from scratch to provide a free and open source alternative to Minix,
which at the time, was licensed for educational uses only.
