This is due to its relative stability and long uptime. Linux distributions are the cornerstone of the LAMP server-software combination (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) which has achieved popularity among developers, and which is one of the more common platforms for website hosting. In addition to servers Linux is used on a wide variety of computer hardware; As an example Linux distributions are commonly used as operating systems for supercomputers (as of August 2008, out of the top 500 systems, 423 (84.6%) run a Linux distribution).
