'''What is a Linux<sup>®</sup> distribution?''' <br>
''"A Linux<sup>®</sup> distribution (often abbreviated to '''distro''') is an '''operating system''' made from a software collection, which is based upon the Linux<sup>®</sup> kernel and often upon a package management system. Linux<sup>®</sup> users usually obtain their operating system by downloading one of the Linux<sup>®</sup> distributions which are available for a wide variety of systems ranging from embedded devices and personal computers to powerful supercomputers."''
