      It looks to me like this:

      Apple is a religion.

      Microsoft is a political party.

                    Right-O Mike! Funny you asked -- just tonight I read the first 30 or so pages of "Last night ...". Interesting, insightful, entertaining ... I like it!

                        Jerry, Jerry, Jerry... Linux is the kernel. Add utilities and a DE and you get a distro.

                        Back to Linux 101 for you!

                            dibl -- cuidado, mi amigo (con Buk) ... it grows on (or in) you ... becomes addictive for reasons that aren't at all clear to the conscious mind ... (I'm through some 3000 pages now, about, I think)

                            And THAT's where they differ: Kubuntu IS clear to the conscious mind! (Cults do differ, you know.)

                              Jerry Jerry Jerry....that sounds so...unflattering! It's also a way of life, after all. A philosophy, if you will. If it was just an "operating system" we would just use the Winblows XP, Vista, 7,8...whatever came with our system...your answer kind of surprises me

                                A well designed tool. One that works for the purpose for which it was developed.
