Linux is an implementation of unix for intel platforms. Linux incorporates a lot of commands as well as implementational procedures from BSD mainly but also from System V. In terms of programming and command manipulation the 2 are identical. Machine language level though they are different.

That looks like quote from some other source. Could you point to the origin or similar place? I'd love to read more...
