What does GNU not being there have to do with anything? Of course Gentoo is
Linux based, but no duh. I said the basis of the chart is far off to say it
is "How much GNU is in GNU/LINUX" as Linux is barely Ubuntu at all. How
silly that a guy who's whole life has been into hardware, software, and
linux. Seeing as I have dual Xeon X5690s at 4.8GHz with quad-580s running at
1200core with 64 gigs of ram for each CPU, I must be mistaken.
