Re: You logo

We will use the distribution Fedora 20 with the environment Gnome 3.12, as it is already tested and I like that everything is working as it should. We would like to change the default theme using fedora to a certain way to stylize distribution. To do this, we would like to use your logo. So we want to place the logo on the equipment. To do this, we want to get your authorization. Versions of the logo is currently being developed in accordance with the options in the colors of the equipment. All options will be presented in the near future for your consideration.

Ah, but it's "enough" to make a useful computer without needing any GNU
tools to boot and run it, if you so desire :)

It's also the "core" of what you are using, without it, your computer
would be useless.  That being said, yes, you can use GNU tools and GNOME
on other operating system kernels (HURD, BSDs, etc.), but that would
severely restrict your choice of hardware, and slow down your useful
output by wasting power and resources needlessly, so it's not
recommended.

Sorry, I couldn't resist,
