it repeats a widespread misunderstanding. Linux is not an operating
system that you can run; it is just one component. Linux in 1992
filled the last gap in the GNU operating system that I started in
1983. The distros referred to are actually versions of GNU/Linux.

See http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html and
http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html for more about this. plus
http://www.gnu.org/gnu/the-gnu-project.html for background.
