'''Eunux''' is an operating system that parodies Linux that is present in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]. Though not much is known about the OS, and it is not seen ingame, what can be gathered is that it proclaims to be a better browser than the others, and that Eunux's mascot is Sux the Sea Cucumber. Eunux is considered the male-only world of open source software and discourages females from using the OS. Eunux is also a word pun on "eunuchs", or castrated individuals. | '''Eunux''' is an operating system that parodies [[wp:Linux|Linux]] that is present in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]].
