Not sure who this peachy guy is</smug>
I'm aware of the acronym, but when talking to non Linux people, I think it
simpler, as people get the drift, rather describing it as rather than a
compatibility layer. The getting into bottles and all the other linked
stuff it can make your head spin.
Still using/playing with Linux has re-awoken my interest in computing. It
is much more fun than messing with the MS offering.
