    Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson invented Unix in the 1960s and 1970s. Unix is a multi-user, multi-tasking operating system that is open source and more secure than Windows. The two main components of Unix are the shell, which acts as the interface between the user and kernel, and the kernel, which executes commands with hardware and manages memory and processor allocation. Popular Unix flavors include Ubuntu, Redhat, and CentOS.
