hurm .. hurm ... i'm pretty sure i learn in Uni that: Operating System => the software that do the memory management, process management, queing, I/O, hware access , software that provide environment for human to interact with the OS => userland utilities. and from what i see in GNU/Linux, Linux is the Operating System .. and GNU is the Userland Utilities .. so, thats quite a clear distinction there to me .. Windows, to me its looks more like a distribution rather than an OS - as its a bundle of the kernel, and a bunch of userland utils, a bunch of spying apps, the update manager , and lots of other craps.. anyway, I still sometimes refer distros as GNU/Linux (in text) .. simply because the text looks geekier .. verbally, i use Linux , its easier to pronounce than gnooh-slash-linux.. p/s: I wonder if the time will come when the Wine people will start fighting to call ReactOS as Wine/ReactOS ... -- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail Amano Hikaru 天野晃 「あまの ひかる」 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MohdIzharFirdaus http://blog.kagesenshi.org 92C2 B295 B40B B3DC 6866 5011 5BD2 584A 8A5D 7331 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
