I'm interested in finding out what people think when they see something GNU. What do you associate with it? Do you tend to be more or less interested in the project if.it is GNU or not? What is your perspective?

One of the most important projects for humankind in it's existence. Computing changed the world and keeps on changing it for the foreseeable future. GNU has lead the fight against its corruption.

It has not been successful enough. And Stallman can be kind of an ass, which doesn't help, but at least they got the thing started.
