Nah. I don't agree - for two reasons. First and most importantly, because it annoys Richard Stallman.
Second: What about X11? To many people it's as much a part of the operating system as the find utility by GNU. What about KDE? With Linux, the line between operating system and applications is more blurred than with Windows since in Windows you have to pay extra for everything, whereas in Linux you get everything packaged on the same CD. So you're running GNU/Linux/Xorg/Qt/KDE/OpenOffice.org/Mozilla/Ximian/etc.... or just Linux :) Ramon Casha 2008/8/25 Jean Azzopardi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > One mistake : GNU/Linux. > Ramon Casha wrote: > > On the 25th August 1991 the following message appeared on the > > newsgroup /comp.os.minix/: > > > > /Hello everybody out there using minix- / > > > > /I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big > > and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones.
