PC Week Labs has chosen Linux for its listing of Top Products of the
Year for 1994.  The announcement reads:

LINUX
While IBM and Microsoft try to outdo each other with lights and stage
smoke, it took a college student in Finland and a loosely knit
coalition of part-time programmers to create a Unix operating system
with advanced networking, development tools, and support for several
simultaneous users on a 386 PC with only 8Mbytes of RAM.  And you
can't beat the price--it's free.

[ PGP 2.6 was also listed. ]
