The best part is the person lecturing Linus about saying "GNU/Linux" instead of "Linux" in his Linux kernel announcements.

Agreed -- because GNU refers to the OS and Linux refers to the kernel. Linus only releases the kernel.

Well Windows is just the OS but we don't lecture people for saying "I use Windows" when they really mean "I use MS Word" or "I play HALO".
