Yes, but linux and Hurd both use GNU software, or software that was "adopted" by the GNU (BTW, Microsoft could "adopt" netscape for use in their OS, but Netscape wouldn't become part of windows) Because of that the name would have to be GNU/Linux/Hurd or a Hurd based GNU/Linux System.
Windows bites, so does OS/2, and almost every other non-unix OS. Unix is the most stable OS, and no matter how hard I try, I can't screw up my Linux-box. It rakes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'.
Anyway, back to the topic. I think Windows should be killed off completely, in-fact every non-unix-based OS should be burned at the stake. (MacOS X is ok) If MS should then be banned from the OS market, they could still write their Applications, but for other Operating systems (obviously) If Microsoft gets their hands on an OS, they will screw it up, and Gain anouther monopoly.
