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.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
As some complementary data points to yesterday's Lenovo ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 AMD Linux laptop review, here is a look at how the out-of-the-box Microsoft Windows 11 Pro performance compares to that of the upcoming Ubuntu 23.10 on this AMD Ryzen 7 7840U "Phoenix" laptop.
Yesterday's ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 review outlined the Linux support and plenty of Linux benchmarks showing how this Ryzen 7 PRO 7840U mobile workstation compares to various other AMD and Intel laptops.
Prior to blowing out the Microsoft Windows 11 Pro installation that shipped with the ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 AMD, I ran some benchmarks of it for comparing the state of Ubuntu 23.10.
The same laptop was (obviously) used for all testing with the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 7840U processor and Radeon RX 780M (RDNA3) graphics, 64GB of LPDDR5X system memory, 2.8K OLED display, and 1TB Kioxia NVMe SSD.
No system BIOS changes or other non-default changes were made over the course of the testing in just wanting to see how the performance compares of Ubuntu Linux and Microsoft Windows on this AMD Zen 4 laptop.
When it comes to creator software like Blender, Linux continues to perform significantly better than Windows 11.
