More like 5. There's a lot of shared work. There's a big pool of packages and
it's a case of pick-and-match.
That's the beauty of it and Microsoft is hoping to imitate it by applying for a
patent on "modular O/S" and planning to scrape Windows (albeit that's not
final).
A big lie or a myth is as big as the perpetrators want it to be. GNU/Linux is
developed very well. There is only /one/ Linux (platform with drivers). The
rest are applications.
