I hear day after day, shoot I even hear and read it in the news. That is people changing there OS to Linux.

Linux is not nor will it ever be a Operating System, Linux is just a Kernel and believe it or not, the actual OS is GNU.
22:14:55 -!- user [[email protected]] has joined #debian
< user> Hi I am having issues with my linux operating system
<+Guru> Well linux isn't an operating system, but what version of the linux *Kernel* are you running?
< user> errr? I just want to play DVD's
<+Guru> Linux has very little todo with playing DVD's, as long as it has drivers for your drive controller then your GNU apps should be able to play it just fine
< user> sorry I dont understand?
<+Guru> RTFM
22:20:43 -!- user [[email protected]] has quit [Im installing windows]
<+Guru> What a Luser
<+zzlam> hehe yer
one could say really stressing this is being anal, one could go even further and say that this is the typical attitude ppl expeect from Linux users, followed shortly by RTFM and why linux won't make it as a mainstream desktop
What is the point of this post? Are you really that concerned about something as trivial as semantics?I hear day after day, shoot I even hear and read it in the news. That is people changing there OS to Linux.

"That is people are changing their OS to Linux."
"Linux is not nor will it ever be an Operating System."
Thank you, this needed to be done.I took the liberty of putting your spelling/grammar mistakes in bold and highlighting them.

No one cares. LONG LIVE LINUX!
The average computer user doesn't care about the details. To them Linux is another OS. As a fellow user of a Linux OS it doesn't bother me when people don't address it properly. I just use it!
Ignorance of stupid things isn't stupidity. And trying to argue that "it's not Linux it's GNU/Linux" is stupidity. Do they call it "explorer/solitaire/bsod/Windows"? No.I take offense to that remark. And I care about the details, I assure you. Hell, I preach the fact that Linux isn't an OS just about every chance I get but but but... sadly, the preaching doesn't have a choir to back me up.
Ignorance isn't bliss, it's outright stupidity.

WARNING! Poor analogy alert:
It would be like saying "Windows XP Professional x64" is improper just because it has more in common with Windows Server 2003 than any other XP derivatives Microsoft had offered.
However, if someone is smart enough to use this "Linux" thing you can generally ask them which distro they're using, and I bet they can give you a correct answer. (ie Knoppix, Debian, Gentoo, Ubuntu, Red Hat, Fedora, SuSE, Mandriva, Slackware, CentOS, Sabayon... I could probably go on and on...)

I know linux is just a kernel but who cares it better than windows and free so if someone wants to run it on a pc then let them, i have it on my laptop and love it and i know its missing some things like photoshop but who cares just dual boot with xp for your photoshop and gameing needs. Also now alot of people run linux especialy ubuntu because its so damn easy to use and they wont get virus' and spyware.
and technically silicon is an insulator doesn't stop people using silicon chips in-place of "semiconducting Integrated Circuits" does it?
