"North Korea has reportedly developed its own version of the Linux operating with a graphical user interface that 
closely resembles Microsoft Windows.

A copy of the North Korean Linux distribution, called Red Star, was purchased in Pyongyang for US$5 by a Russian 
student named Mikhail,
who then posted a brief review of it on his blog using the Russian embassy's Internet connection,
according to the English-language Web site of Russia Today, a Russian television news channel."
