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.

Did they have to go with such a loud shade of blue? It would look so much better on the eyes if it was a nice deep dark blue.
Tbh I don't even know why it needs to be blue or any colour at all.
Everyone knows what the blue screen is. This makes the implication when the screen does appear really obvious.
No need to reinvent the wheel.
Agree, the old windows blue screen would sear your retinas, could definitely be tuned down a bit.
Exactly
Black with big white text would be nice
