Hi,

At the moment, I disagree with that article: is it talking about these in
terms of being an operating system, or a desktop environment? Windows XP
is an operating system, yet the article goes on at length about GNU/Linux
distributions. I, for one, would not equate the former type with the
latter.

Is the present distinction between the two types so blurred so as to be
nonsensical?

Regards,

Edward.
